Since the beginning of the year, specialists from JSC Mosgaz have reconstructed facade gas pipelines at 117 addresses throughout the capital. The total length of the repaired networks is more than 11.8 kilometers, which is comparable to the length of several streets.
Moscow facades serve not only as architectural decoration for the city. Important engineering networks are hidden on and behind the facades, including gas pipelines responsible for the uninterrupted supply of gas to homes.
Repair of facade gas pipelines is not just replacing old pipes with new ones. It is a multi-stage process that includes thorough diagnostics, planning and the use of modern technologies. The work uses a four-level diagnostic system for facade gas pipelines. It allows you to accurately determine the degree of wear and the need for repairs.
The first stage is studying the documentation. Specialists analyze all available information about the gas pipeline in order to create a clear work plan and select the necessary equipment. At the second stage, Mosgaz employees record defects and damage and determine the need for an instrumental survey, which is the third stage. Using modern equipment, specialists conduct a detailed analysis of the gas pipeline in order to identify hidden defects. Then the degree of wear of the gas pipeline is assessed, the necessary repair work is planned and the best option is selected – eliminating defects or replacing a section.
Such detailed diagnostics of facade gas pipelines allows to determine the category of their technical condition and physical wear objectively and accurately, and also to give recommendations for designing a new gas pipe or repairing an existing one. During repairs, specialists install a bypass – a spare route for gas, which allows to avoid disconnecting consumers from the service.
