Pipeline Pigging and Pipeline Services Pipeline Engineering, a CIRCOR Energy company, is a market leading global provider of products, services and engineered solutions for the pipeline pigging and flow assurance industry. We have particular expertise in the design and manufacture of pipeline pigs, which are engineered to meet the specific requirements of individual pipelines. 3
Foam Pigs Pipeline Engineering s Foam Pigs are used in pipelines for liquid removal, swabbing, drying, product separation, cleaning and as part of progressive pipeline cleaning campaigns. These foam pigs are ideal for all pipelines, including complex piping systems with tight radii or mitred bends and pipelines where significant variations in internal diameters exist. Foam Pigs - Types Bare Foam Pigs Single Spiral Foam Pigs Criss Cross Foam Pigs Criss Cross Abrasive Foam Pigs Fully Coated Foam Pigs Wire Brush Foam Pigs Total Wire Brush Foam Pigs Applications Proving Swabbing / Wiping De-watering Drying Sizes Available 2 to 60 - Foam pigs are supplied for all pipe sizes. Density Range Foam pigs are supplied in all industry standard densities. DENSITY Low Medium High We can adapt our foam pigs for different operational requirements. Typical adaptations include: Double Dish & Double Nose Configurations Towing and Lifting Loops Extended Length Dual Diameter Product Separation Product Removal Debris Removal Scraping / Cleaning 1-2LBS / CU.FT. 5-8LBS / CU.FT. 9-12LBS / CU.FT. 4
Solid Cast Polyurethane Pigs Pipeline Engineering s Solid Cast Pigs are produced from our high grade all-polyurethane formulation which gives them excellent chemical and abrasion resistance. Typically, Solid Cast Pigs are used as sealing pigs to remove debris and to keep pipelines clear of deposit build-up. Solid Cast Pigs are also used for batching operations. They do not require maintenance and are designed to be disposable, making them the preferred type of pig when metal bodied pigs are unsuitable. The flexibility of our Solid Cast Pigs makes them ideal for use in complex pipeline geometries and small diameter pipelines, typically found in process plants. Applications Product removal Batching Hydrostatic testing Debris removal Displacement Commissioning / Decommissioning Sizes Available Solid cast pigs are supplied for pipeline sizes ranging from 2 to 14 and larger where required Density Depending upon operational parameters Solid Cast Pigs are supplied as 65A to 75A shore hardness. 5
Metal Bodied Pigs Pipeline Engineering is a market leader in the design and manufacture of metal bodied pigs, with our expertise having been gained over many years of operating in the Oil and Gas sector. In-house expertise means that we can produce metal bodied pigs to meet the specific requirements of pipelines where they will be used. This is achieved by designing these Metal Bodied Pigs with a combination of components including Cups, Discs, Brushes, Plough Blades, Gauge Plates, Magnets and Tracking Equipment. Our Metal Bodied pigs are used during all phases of a pipeline life cycle Precommissioning Commissioning Production Decommissioning Metal Bodied Pigs - Types Uni-directional Standard Cup Pigs Uni-directional Conical Cup Pigs Bi-directional Disc Pigs Cleaning Pigs Batching / Separation Pigs Gauging Pigs Ancillary Equipment Pig Trolleys Pig Baskets / Catchers Metal bodied pigs are designed to be re-usable with replacement cups, discs and other components available. Pipeline Engineering also add wear lines and unique identification numbers to our discs to indicate when they need replacing, therefore helping to ensure continued effective pigging. Sizes Available Metal Bodied Pigs are available for pipelines ranging from 6-60 Other sizes are available on request 6
Specialty Pigs Pipeline Engineering designs and builds specialty pigs to meet the specific pigging requirements of complex and demanding pipelines. This is achieved through analysis of the existing pipeline issues including assessment of all pipeline features. Using this information we design, prototype, test and produce bespoke pigs for specific pipeline pigging requirements. Using specialist pigs developed this way enables innovative and highly effective solutions to be provided, as well as ensuring safe and efficient passage of the pig through a pipeline. Computer Aided Design State of the art 3D CAD design capability allows us to initially develop specialty pigs and simulate their functionality. Pig Development and Testing Specialty pigs are routinely tested in our purpose built test loops. This process allows analysis of performance against the predetermined criteria. It also allows further design refinement to be implemented to benefit specialty pig performance when in fully operational conditions. Specialty Pigs - Types Multi-diameter Pigs Articulated Pigs Isolation Pigs Cleaning Assessment Pigs - PECAT High Friction Pigs Descaling / Dewaxing Pigs Powder Removal Pigs Extended Length Pigs Bespoke Operational Pigs Specialty Pig Manufacture / Assembly On completion of successful trials, specialty pig designs are transferred to our computer aided manufacturing system for production and assembly. 7
Pipeline Spheres Pipeline Engineering s range of Pipeline Spheres are predominantly used for batching or separation operations in pipelines and removal of liquids from gas pipelines. Pipeline spheres are extremely adaptable and ideal when negotiation of short radius bends in pipelines is required. Applications Liquid Removal Batching Meter Proving Automated Pigging Spheres Types & Sizes Available Solid Spheres - 2 to 12 Inflatable Spheres - 3 and above Ancillary Equipment Inflatable Tool Sets Inflatable Sphere Pumps Sphere Handling Equipment Sphere Transportation System Sizing Rings Sphere Diameter Tape Sphere Loading Trolleys 8
