MDE - 8″ COOLING HOT TAPS

Project Overview

WellFab performed two 8″ live hot taps on active cooling mains at the MDE facility. The project included Tonisco valve installation, controlled live tapping, coupon capture, pressure monitoring, and system restoration for future branch integration.

Scope of Work

• Installation of 8″ Tonisco valves
• Controlled live hot tapping on cooling mains
• Secure coupon capture and pressure integrity control
• Clean branch connections and system restoration

Project Impact

The operation was executed under strict safety procedures and monitoring to ensure a smooth tie-in while maintaining system reliability. This project reinforces WellFab’s expertise in live hot tapping for large-diameter cooling applications.
