Leak sealing
On-stream leak sealing is a very volatile industry in which Leak Sealers prevails. Leak Sealers makes a conscious effort to stay atop this volatile industry. The main reason why Leak Sealers is able to stay on top in the on-stream leak sealing industry is because of its industry-leading emergency response time. Leak Sealers guarantees 99 percent of every emergency job is delivered back to the facility in a 24-hour time period (depending on the magnitude of the enclosure). This timeframe starts from the time the leaking apparatus is measured by a Leak Sealers technical crew. Another commitment from Leak Sealers is that each routine job be delivered in a 48-hour timeframe. Each one of these commitments helps assure customers Leak Sealers personnel is 100-percent dedicated to reducing response time. And even as each job is completed in a time-efficient manner, it is also completed in the safest manner possible.

Valve repair
What kinds of valves does Leak Sealers repair?
• Ball valves
• Gate valves
• Globe valves
• Plug valves
• Check valves
How does Leak Sealers repair them? Leak Sealers has a very extensive and elaborate valve repair program. Response team members are able to service any valve in two different scenarios. The first scenario is to repair the valve while it is still in service; this is preferred by most operating facilities. The other scenario, which is also very effective, is to have the valve removed for repair at a service facility when it is not in service, such as during a shutdown or turnaround. Both scenarios have helped Leak Sealers prevail and emerge at the forefront of valve repair service in the industry.
There are many different techniques with which a response team member can solve valve repair issues while the valve is still in service, with the first being to drill and inject a sealant into the valve packing area. Another technique utilized by Leak Sealers is to gag and change the packing bolts all while the valve is still in service. Techniques such as hand-packing the valve, resurfacing the flange faces, and breaking out and re-torqueing the flanges all require the valve to be out of service.
All of these options are desirable in the industry. Leak Sealers’ emergency response teams have many years of experience in performing each one of these tasks.
