Understanding, then avoiding in-service failures linked to the use of the squeeze-off flow stopping technique
Polyethylene pipes are widely used across the utilities sector for the safe, reliable, transportation of gas or water under pressure. The success of the material in being adopted is partly due to the ability to treat it as an engineering polymer whose properties and failure modes are well understood, predictable, and in the case of failure designed out of field installations. In the recent past, a new failure mode has been observed on field installations made in the United Kingdom, manifesting itself during the application of the squeeze off flow-stopping technique.
