    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses relate to repairing a conduit having a defect and providing the conduit with structural support. A support member may be positioned along the inner surface of a conduit covering a defect. A sealing member may be disposed along a periphery of the support member so as to provide an obstruction to fluid flow between an outer surface of the support member and the inner surface of the conduit. One or more retaining members may apply a suitable pressure to the sealing member and support member to maintain obstruction to fluid flow between the interior and the exterior of the conduit. The support member may provide the repaired conduit with a greater degree of structural integrity and strength at the site of the defect than would otherwise be available.
