Hydrostatic & Pneumatic Pressure Testing
- What We Do
Comprehensive Hydrostatic & Pneumatic Testing
Presio provides hydrostatic and pneumatic pressure testing to verify the integrity, strength and leak-tightness of pressure-bearing systems before commissioning or return to service. Our experienced technicians test pipelines, vessels, process piping and associated equipment to confirm they meet design specifications and relevant engineering standards.
Using specialized pumps, instrumentation and controlled testing procedures, we safely pressurize systems beyond their operating pressure to identify leaks, structural weaknesses or installation defects. This ensures assets are compliant, safe and ready for reliable operation before they are placed into service.
Hydrostatic testing uses liquid (typically water) to test systems safely, while pneumatic testing uses compressed gas when water testing is not practical or permitted. Both methods are essential for verifying system integrity in industrial environments.
