Issue #109 In Focus: Flange Protection
The integrity of flanged connections is critical to the containment of fluids in a piping system. Loss of containment, whether in chemical lines such as hydrocarbons and gas systems or water distribution lines, will have significant environmental, operational and commercial impact, and could pose a serious safety risk. Proven for over 10 years, the Belzona flange face forming technology eliminates the need for conventional cut and weld repair methods involving hot work and allows for a simple application in emergency situations, especially in areas with limited access such as on offshore platforms.This issue discusses this technology in detail and introduces a unique repair kit developed to aid this solution.
