BACKFILLINGBACKFILLINGBackfilling shall be carried out immediately after pipeline lowering in trench afterinspection, so as to provide a natural anchorage for the pipeline, thus avoiding longexposure of coating to high temperature, damaging action of adverse weather conditions,sliding down of trench sides and pipeline movement in the trench.
Backfil l material shall not contain any extraneous material or hard lumps of soil which candamage pipeline or coating or leave the voids in backfilled trench. After placing of initial backfill, proper compact ion shall be done. The surplus mater ialshall be crowned (300 mm) directly over trench and adjacent excavated area on both s ideof trench.If trench are excavated in steep area where the slope is more than 10%, slope breakersshall be installed to prevent erosion of backfill.

HYDROHYDRO --TESTINGTESTING
Hydrostatic test is performed on entire length of the pipeline. The maximum permitted lengthis 50 Kms. Hydrostatic test diagrams indicating number of test sections and minimum andmaximum test pressure in each test section are prepared before performing hydrostatic test.
Hydrostatic test commence only after completion of all welding works so as to avoid/minimize untested hydro-test joints/ Golden joints.
Hydro test includes all those sections which are tested earlier for Road, rail road crossings,major water c rossings etc.
Duration of hydrostatic test is minimum 24 hours after thermal stabilization. Hydro-static testpressure for pipeline handling hydrocarbon in gaseous phase is 1.25 times the designpressure in pipeline located in Class-1 & 2 locations and 1.4 times the design pressure ifpipeline located in Class-3 & 4 locations.
Before water filling, pipeline shall be cleaned with air driven pigs with spring loaded brushesand chiseled to remove all mill scale, rust, sand etc. from the internal pipe section.
After successful c leaning and acceptance, gauging is carr ied out using gauging pig.

After acceptance of gauging operation, un-inhabited water is pumped into the section usingfour cup batching pigs which are launched at specific intervals.
After water filling operation, thermal equilibrium between pipel ine and environment shal l bechecked with thermocouples installed on the pipeline.
After thermal stabi lization pressur ization is carried out in cycles of 50% test pressure & 75%test pressure and held for 1 hour at each test pressure and depressurized to zero pressure andthen pressurized to final test pressure. During each test pressure, two test shall be carried outfor calculation of air volume in the pipeline under test and on acceptance of air volume test thesection is held for 24 hours at Final test pressure and pressure and temperature recorded onchart.
The hydrostatic test shall be considered positive if pressure has kept a constant valuethroughout the test duration, except for change due to temperature effects. The pressure value
thus added shall be compared with initial value and the test shall be considered as acceptableif the difference is less than or equal to 0.3 bar.
After positive test results , test shal l be terminated . The pipel ine shall be depressur ized atconstant rate. Dewatering shall be carried out by using four cup pigs dr iven by compressed air.Foam pigs shall be passed to complete the dewatering.
