The Global Hot Tapping, Line Stop and Pipeline Intervention Technical Exchange and Exhibition is a premier technical event dedicated to the specialized field of live pipeline operations. Scheduled for October 19–21, 2026, at the Kempinski Al Othman Hotel in Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia, the conference focuses on hot tapping, line stopping, and pipeline isolation through intervention without shut-down.

Supported by Asme Saudi Section and under the chairmanship of Mousa Al Harbi, Engineering Consultant, Saudi Aramco, the event brings together industry leaders, engineers, and technical experts to share knowledge on maintaining and modifying pipeline systems without service interruptions. The conference is designed for technical professionals, operators, and decision-makers involved in engineering, planning, execution, and safety management of live pipeline intervention and isolation activities.

The conference follows a comprehensive technical agenda designed to address the lifecycle of pipeline intervention:

• Fundamentals & Best Practices: A look at the history of isolation technology, safety planning, and international standards.
• Advanced Technical Applications: Exploring intrusive vs. non-intrusive isolation, emerging line-stopping techniques, and digital remote monitoring.
• Safety & Risk Mitigation: Focused on personnel safety, regulatory compliance, and hazard identification (pre- and post-isolation).
• Project Management: Navigating the complexities of shutdowns, turnarounds, and collaboration between main contractors and operators.
• Validation & Certification: Deep dives into equipment performance, pressure testing, fatigue analysis, and third-party certification.

In addition to the unique mix of formal presentations, case studies (both successes and failures), and interactive sessions, the event will also feature an exhibition area - a dedicated space for global technology providers to showcase cutting-edge equipment and services. This offers a unique chance to strengthen relationships with existing clients and establish connections with new ones.

The Global Hot Tapping, Line Stop and Pipeline Intervention Technical Exchange and Exhibition is the definitive gathering for professionals looking to secure the future of pipeline integrity and operational continuity.
