A serious leak from a pipeline in a continuous process plant calls for a choice
between three courses of action.
-
The pipeline can be shut down for conventional repair.
-
The leak can be left to blow, usually only for a limited time.
-
The leak can be cured while the line remains at full PRESSURE and TEMPERATURE
from sub-zero to 600degC and from vacuum to 6,000psi.
