Hot tapping in pipeline logistics
Quelle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_tapping
Hot tapping in pipeline logistics is the process of creating a live connection to an existing pressurized pipeline or vessel without needing to empty, depressurize, or shut down the system. It uses specialized equipment such as hot tap valves, drilling machines, and protective housings, allowing maintenance, expansion, or diversion of flow with minimal disruption.
