AIRTIGHTNESS TESTS (HYDROSTATICS)

Hydrostatic testing is a way to check the tightness, structural integrity and strength of conduction lines and pressure containers.

This test exposes the reliability of the tightness of a system quantitatively. This service provides a final verification of quality and operational integrity for our customers, which include oil producers, underwater component manufacturers, pipeline manufacturers as well as oil and gas suppliers. The standard hydrostatic test includes the hydraulic and pressure calculation according to the system and engineering, the filling of the container with liquid, air purging, compression of the same up to the test pressure and time test period of tightness according to applicable standard or customer requirements.

Finmec Group can perform hydrostatic testing on any pipeline no matter its size, from a reel to a complete mechanical system. For all this we have equipment and instrumentation for any type of system that requires tests, such as filling pumps from 10 to 500 mca / h, compressors with varying flow rates from 5000 to 50,000 l / min, usable in parallel to reach any flow that the client requires. In the leak test, we use high-pressure pumps with variable flows: from 10 to 2,000 l/min and pressures up to 750 bar.
