Pipework’s are the pipes that run the diesel from the main tanks, to the day tank and into the generator. They are also the ventilation pipes and disposal pipes.

It is essential that integrity tests are performed on pipework to check for any leakage, blockages and rust corrosion.

Synonymous with the underground tank the pipework and associated system are the “running gear” for the main tanks, day tanks and generator. They also form an integral part of the fuel management system.

Integrity testing is vital as more often than not problems with pipework and associated transfer systems often go undetected. It is imperative that regular preventative maintenance checks are carried out in order to locate any leakages, blockages or rust corrosion.
