In-pipe leak detection

Our experience of under pressure insertion techniques gives unparalleled expertise in in-pipe leak detection

Our experience of inserting cameras and tethered devices under pressure is unparalleled and was developed for mains condition inspections in the 1980s.

We offer a range of specialist pipeline insertion leak detection services:

  • Tethered Camera Insertion
  • Tethered Hydrophone Insertion
  • Gas Insertion and Above Ground Tracing
  • Flow and Pressure Loss Systems

When combined with our under pressure drill and tapping service we can install full bore hydrants and gate valve tappings to enable insertion.

As devices can be tethered this often means we can avoid traffic management requirements.

Use of these insertion techniques enables us to accurately detect the low frequency, low amplitude and difficult leaks that above ground surveys cannot locate.
