Abstract :
Repair of pipelines with the help of torus vehicles consists of four basic operations: diagnosing of an initial condition of the pipeline, its clearing, drawing of a sheeting and quality surveillance of the restored communication. Moreover torus vehicles themselves can be used in all these operations.
