Wellube, a Unique Group company, one of the leading experts in flow management intervention and integrity, has announced the launch of its latest innovation, the Double Isolation Pipeline Stopper (DIPS).
Developed in-house by the Wellube research and development team, this innovative solution represents a major advancement in pipeline intervention and safety management.
Double Isolation Pipeline Stoppers (DIPS) provide fail-safe isolation using a single size-on-size hot tap intervention, eliminating the need for additional taps for bleed and vent ports. This approach reduces risk and improves safety, making it ideal for use in critical and harsh environments.
Garry Kidd, managing director at Wellube, said: “The introduction of our Double Isolation Pipeline Stopper (DIPS) underlines Wellube’s commitment to providing cutting edge solutions that enhance safety and efficiency in flow management and intervention. DIPS is designed to provide our customers with unparalleled reliability and safety, ensuring critical pipeline operations remain online and uninterrupted.”
Wellube’s DIPS technology is third-party approved and designed to reduce risk to both assets and operators in highly volatile operating conditions, meeting the highest performance standards trusted by clients around the world. It is a safer way to enable repair, maintenance, modification and reconfiguration work on existing piping systems, whether planned or emergency.
Wellube strives to remain at the forefront of the industry by continually developing and integrating new technologies to meet and exceed our customers’ needs.
