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.Hyperbaric testing at our site is completed in accordance with relevant standards such as the API 17 series in oil and gas, as well as SEPS for subsea electrical power cables.
Hyperbaric testing is used to extensively test components that are required to operate at pressure levels higher than atmospheric conditions. This type of testing is performed on components used in offshore or subsea environments, as well as in extreme high pressure applications to test and verify that a product can operate under extreme, pressurised conditions.
We provide specialist hyperbaric testing services to a range of sectors across the globe. Housing nine hyperbaric chambers, including one of the largest commercial chambers in the world.
Chamber TPT 5, our largest hyperbaric chamber, has the capability to pressure test down to 4,500 metres, equivalent to 6,526 psi/450 Bar whilst simultaneously testing at temperatures down to -2°C. Automated controls and an interactive loading table support greater efficiencies with an ability to load, fill and fully pressurise in under 90 minutes. This chamber also benefits from being fully automated meaning any natural fluctuations in the likes of pressures and temperatures are self-regulated without the need for manual overriding. Automated controls are also used to simulate the movement of components within pressurised environments.
Our highly skilled and knowledgeable test engineers, who have over 20 years’ experience, are experts in hyperbaric testing and associated pressure testing services. Clients have the opportunity to draw on their specialist knowledge with the option to select our beginning to end, fully project managed testing service. Independent hire of the hyperbaric chambers is also available.
