Hi Ali

if the line has leaked, then you can almost certainly drill a hole; its just another leak.
Is it a seawater line or a fresh water line? Is it steel? What size and pressure? What does it connect to?
What thickness reading did you get from the UT meter? What type (make/model) of meter is used?
Do you have access to the original line installers? Is the pipe above ground or buried?
If you are new to the site are there any old guys, esp tradesmen, that you can ask?

Sorry about all the questions.

Cheers

Steve McKenzie

Steve,

The line is running we cannot drill hole. The line leaked previously many time, but I'm new in the site. Our UT meters cannot detect the interface.

Regards,
Ali
