Gas pipelines

Gas pipeline sealing and corrosion protection, when the consequences of failure are different

Stakes of failure

In a gas pipeline, the consequences of failure are on another level entirely from district heating. For gas lines Kampek supplies Covalence steel-pipe heat‑shrink sleeves (the HTLP and WPC ranges, repair patches, epoxy and application accessories) and Stopaq systems, from urban distribution to long‑distance transport pipelines. The district heating RJS‑E, FOPS and DHEC are not gas products.

Frequently asked questions

Questions and answers

What protects buried gas pipes and steel lines?
Buried steel lines and their joints are protected with Stopaq's cold-applied polyisobutene wrap, with a mechanical Stopaq Outerwrap on top. At road, rail and waterway crossings the casing annulus is filled with Stopaq Casing Filler.
Can Stopaq be applied without taking the pipe out of service?
Stopaq is applied cold and without blasting, so the pipe can often stay in service during the work. We assess the right procedure for the site, so do ask.
Does the protection interfere with cathodic protection?
No. Stopaq is compatible with cathodic protection, which matters on long buried transmission lines. The protection and the cathodic protection work together.
What temperature and load does the protection withstand?
Stopaq Wrappingband withstands −45 °C to +70 °C in service and +90 °C short-term. The mechanical Outerwrap protects the wrap from impact and indentation during and after backfilling.
Does the system also suit crossings and casings?
Yes. Stopaq Casing Filler fills the annulus between the casing and the carrier pipe at crossings, and the Stopaq wrap also protects fittings and penetrations. Tell us the type of site and we suggest the right combination.
