All steel pipes have an end life and the replacement of these old corroded steel pipes is a major challenge to most pipe owners and operators. The issues that need to be addressed include: cost of replacement, engineering works, disruption to operations, maintenance costs, environmental compliance and health and safety laws. These Issues become more acute in urban areas, in routes with limited accessibility and projects with economic constraints.
One solution to economically and safely extend the life of a pressure pipe is to insert a flexible pipe or a flexible liner inside the old pipe using a method known as pull through. Benefits of this method include: no trenching, project completed in days not months, simple installation process requiring minimum personnel and equipment, no internal corrosion , no adhesion to old pipe and a continuous pipe system of few hundred metres or few kilometres in length meaning fewer joints and excavations.
