Hot Tapping Case Study: Jaguar Land Rover

HOT TAPPING CASE STUDY

Webber N.W Ltd, on behalf of Jaguar Land Rover

Client:  Webber N.W Ltd, on behalf of Jaguar Land Rover 

The Problem:Webbers were required to tap into a 6” cooling water main to supply new machinery. 

However, the water main could not be isolated or drained down because the system was constantly in use. Being a long-term client of Ormond hot tapping services, Webbers contacted us to do a under pressure drill on water.

Our solution:  Ormond shaped a 4” saddle and welded it on to the 6” water main. 

After successfully pressure testing the new connection, Ormond attached the under-pressure drill and began hot tapping the live water main. Once the hot tapping was complete, Ormond installed a safety blank to prevent leaving an open end.

Tasks Involved:

  1. Pressure test 

  2. Hot tapping/under pressure drilling

  3. Welding

  4. Commercial Pipework

We have used Ormond's hot tapping services for over 20 years, and will continue to do so
