Episode Synopsis

When corrosion, dents or cracking threaten pipeline integrity, operators need repair options that don’t trade safety for speed. In this episode, we sits down with T.D. Williamson experts Harold Lee (Training and Technical Support Manager) and Jacques Nicol (Senior Account Manager) to unpack PETROSLEEVE—a non-intrusive, steel-on-steel repair solution designed to restore strength without cutting into the line.

You’ll hear how the system puts the carrier pipe into permanent compression to blunt crack propagation, stabilize dent fatigue and help isolate corrosion from future moisture. The team also explains why avoiding welds to the parent pipe can reduce common in-service welding risks, how PETROSLEEVE can be installed across a wide range of operating conditions (including full line pressure), and the role of TDW’s supporting software in engineering and documenting each repair for quality control and regulatory confidence.
