We are looking to use line stops as a means of assisting in isolation/reduction in properties affected during bursts and other maintenance activities, this could be in rural or unban situations on large or small diameter materials. With the ability to carry out the small diameter line stop ourselves we are looking to purchase suitable equipment which will enable us to carry out this work, for larger diameter pipes we outside our ability/desire to deliver and so are looking to set up a service agreement with an appropriate company who will deliver this operation at our request. Primarily the shutdowns will be to reduce the number of properties within the isolation area where sluice valves are not available.
