Pressure Testing at Kilometre Point 297
The ends of the two sections of Line 1 meet on the seabed 297 kilometres from the
start of the route in Portovaya Bay, Russia. The first section, from kilometre point
(KP) 0 to KP 297, is designed for an operational pressure of up to 220 bar. The second
section, from KP 297 to KP 675, is designed for 200 bar. Therefore, the two segments
are tested separately at rates higher than their maximum operating pressure. Following
pressure testing, the two segments will be welded together underwater. The same
testing procedure is applied to section three, which will then be connected at KP 675.
