Description: Along with launching and receiving traps for gas-and oil-ducts, equipped with quick closures, Fluidel may also supply all the necessary accessories, like pigs for cleaning, batching, gauging, and pig detectors.
Characteristics: In particular spheroidal pigs in polyurethane or neoprene material are used in different situations:
during the filling of pipelines with water to insure any trapped air is removed
prior hydrostatic testing;
to dewater pipelines after successful completion of the hydrostatic testing;
for product separation during batching of multiple products in pipelines to
minimize interface mixing.
in removing liquid drop-out in natural gas pipelines, caused by variation of
temperature and pressure
in controlling wax buildup on the pipewalls of crude oil pipelines
in batching of corrosion inhibitors in the pipeline.
