STATS Group Completes 12 Pipeline Isolations For Malaysian Operator
Pipeline technology specialist STATS Group (STATS) have completed an extensive pipeline isolation campaign offshore and onshore Malaysia.
The six month campaign covered 12 pipeline isolations on behalf of partner Handal Energy Berhad for a major operator in Malaysia, and represented the largest integrated campaign undertaken by STATS in the region.
All workscopes featured STATS’ range of Remote Tecno Plug® (RTP) which provided inline pipeline isolation to allow the live repair and replacement of valves on onshore and offshore assets in West Malaysia and Sarawak.
STATS Group supplies pressurized pipeline isolation, hot tapping and plugging services to the global oil, gas and petrochemical industries. The company’s DNV GL type approved isolation tools provide leak-tight double block and bleed isolation of pressurized pipelines while the system remains live and at operating pressure.
The RTPs ranged in size from 12” to 32” and teams from STATS Beranang workshop in Kuala Lumpur, backed up by personnel from the UK and UAE, worked jointly to complete the projects safely and on schedule.
Gareth Campbell, STATS Group’s regional manager for Asia Pacific, said: “With the successful completion of two 28” RTP isolations on facilities in Sarawak, this brings to a close our six month long isolation campaign in Malaysia, during which a total of 12 safety critical projects have been completed for valve repair and maintenance.”
