[0002] During the use of oil and gas transportation pipelines, due to their own or external factors, local corrosion, deformation or damage may occur in the pipelines, posing potential safety hazards to the pipelines. When repairing or replacing the defective sections, pipeline plugging operations are required. As shown in the attached Figure 1 figure, the traditional pressure - tapping and plugging device for oil and gas pipelines: corresponding process hole fittings 3, plugging tee fittings 6 and oil extraction fittings 8 are welded at both ends of the defective pipe section according to the pipe diameter specifications. A high - pressure hole - opening machine is used to open holes on the corresponding fittings. The disc - type plugging head 7 is sent into the pipeline by the oil cylinder 4 for plugging operations. After the plugging is completed and the tightness is tested, and there is no leakage, the medium in the defective pipe section is discharged through the oil extraction fitting 8, and the defective pipe section is cut off and removed by a cold cutting device. The traditional pressure - tapping and plugging device for oil and gas pipelines requires a large number of plugging tee fittings, airbag fittings and bypass fittings to be welded on the pipeline, which cannot be removed. Therefore, there are problems such as high danger and large leakage risk. Content of the Utility Model
