Hyperbaric Testing Services
Tyne Pressure Testing provides specialized hyperbaric testing services designed to verify the performance and integrity of components that operate under extreme, pressurised conditions. Utilizing nine hyperbaric chambers, including one of the world's largest commercial chambers, the facility can simulate water depths down to 4,500 metres, equivalent to 6,526 psi/450 Bar. This type of testing adheres to industry standards such as API 17 series and SEPS, making it suitable for offshore, subsea, and other high-pressure applications. Tyne Pressure Testing also offers automated controls, interactive loading tables, and remote viewing capabilities that allow clients to monitor the testing in real-time from any location worldwide. With over 20 years of experience, their engineers can provide end-to-end project management or independent chamber hire. The company's facilities include client offices, break-out areas, Wi-Fi, and conferencing facilities to support client representatives who may travel from across the globe.

Hydrostatic Testing Services
Tyne Pressure Testing offers specialized hydrostatic testing services, capable of testing up to 50,000 psi or 3,450 Bar. These services adhere to a variety of international standards, including defense standard 02-517, BSEN 13480, ASME B31.3, API 6D, API 17D, API 6DSS, and ANSI Class. The primary applications for hydrostatic testing include assessing the structural integrity of pressure vessels such as gas cylinders, boilers, fuel tanks, and pipelines. The component is typically filled with water and pressurized to validate proof of operational capability, ensuring safety and compliance with design standards. Our facility also offers nine hyperbaric testing chambers, with the capacity to simulate water depths up to 4,500 meters. Clients can opt for our end-to-end project management services or independently utilize our test bays. We cater to various industries including oil and gas, civil nuclear, and defense, providing comprehensive documentation and product certification post-testing.

Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) Services
Factory acceptance testing (FAT) at Tyne Pressure Testing involves either conventional gas or hydrostatic tests with minimal pressure hold periods. This can also include a series of back-to-back tests to verify the integrity of each independent sealing system within a product assembly. FAT is extensively used post-design and fabrication stages to ensure products function correctly and identify any potential issues before they advance to the final stages. This method provides assurance to both manufacturers and end-users regarding the product's conformity to specifications. Tyne Pressure Testing offers pressure testing capabilities up to 2,000 Bar using nitrogen and 3,450 Bar for hydrostatic tests. Their testing processes adhere to API 6A PSL 2 G and 3G standards, and they maintain relationships with third-party certifying authorities for witness testing. The facility boasts nine hyperbaric testing chambers, including one capable of simulating water depths of 4,500 meters. Services can be project-managed by their experts or conducted independently by clients.

Temperature Testing Services
Temperature testing at Tyne Pressure Testing is designed to evaluate how products and components behave under extreme temperature conditions. The API 6A Appendix F PR2 qualification ensures that components can withstand harsh environments, typically encountered in remote locations. Our facility can replicate temperatures from as low as -160°C up to +300°C. This type of testing, combined with high-pressure gas testing, verifies the safe and reliable function of components in extreme conditions. Cryogenic testing, which involves testing at very low temperatures, is also available and can be crucial for components used in environments like the Arctic or at high altitudes. Liquid nitrogen is stored on-site to achieve temperatures down to -160°C. Our hyperbaric chambers, including the world's largest commercially available chamber, can simulate water depths up to 4,500 meters. Our services include fully managed testing projects or independent chamber rental. We offer additional services such as data reporting, third-party verification, and client facilities with connectivity options.

Helium Leak Testing Services
Helium leak testing is a method used for gas tests that require stringent acceptance criteria, due to helium's small molecular composition in comparison to nitrogen. The testing process employs a mass spectrometer for sniffing, demonstrating sensitivity over a thousand times greater than other methods. Helium's small molecules make it ideal for penetrating leaks quickly and easily without interference from atmospheric background levels. Tyne Pressure Testing offers both on-site equipment and expert knowledge to conduct these tests, which are crucial for sectors such as oil and gas production and diver equipment. The facility provides nine hyperbaric chambers, including the world’s largest commercial chamber, capable of simulating water depths up to 4,500 meters. The team offers fully managed project services or independent chamber rentals, with the potential to run assessments from minutes to several weeks. Additional options include 24-hour testing with automated controls for efficiency and full documentation with video footage upon completion.
