Oil & Gas Pipeline Repair with SylWrap

The oil and gas industry use SylWrap Leak Repair Kits and the SylWrap Pipe Refurbishment System for pipeline repair, strengthening and reinforcement in harsh and aggressive environments.

Pipelines which have undergone repair and strengthening with SylWrap products include oil, sulphuric acid, hydrogen, natural gas, methanol and water cooling systems.

SylWrap Leak Repair Kits seal leaking pipes in under 30 minutes even with pressure still on. The ability to repair in-service enables systems to stay operational, avoiding downtime and disruption.

Leak repairs are effective on pipes of all sizes and diameters. They are pressure resistant to 30 bar and can be made to withstand temperatures of up to 280ºC.

Preferable to making a leaking oil or gas pipe repair is preventing breaches from occurring in the first place. The SylWrap Pipe Refurbishment System (SPRS) follows a four-stage process which rebuilds worn and degraded pipes and protects them against corrosion and other forms of attack.

Extending the lifespan of systems using the SPRS before they fail maintains critical infrastructure and avoids more costly leak repairs further down the line.

Pipe repairs using the SPRS can be designed to conform to ASME PCC-2. This is an important standard for the repair of in-service pressure-retaining equipment and piping, such as pipework systems in the oil and gas industry.

Sylmasta also manufacture SylShield Pipe Weld & Protection Wrap, a specialist composite bandage with extreme thickness. It offers ultimate protection for oil and gas pipelines undergoing intense and abrasive processes, such as trenchless pipe installation.
