Recent Project Overview:
Recently, PSSS was approached to develop a pigging philosophy for a seawater intake system. This project showcased the importance of a tailored approach to pigging in challenging pipeline environments.The pipelines had not undergone pigging before and required a tailored solution due to unique challenges, including the accumulation of debris such as construction materials, sand, and marine growth and the absence of permanent pigging facilities.
Our team worked closely with the client to develop a flexible and cost-effective pigging strategy, ensuring the safe and efficient cleaning of their pipelines. The solution we provided involved selecting suitable pig types for the specific conditions and creating temporary setups to facilitate the pigging process.
Our Pigging Solution:
- Pig Types: We utilised a combination of pigs designed to handle debris buildup and tight bends within the pipeline system.
- Pigging Frequency: An initial frequent pigging schedule was implemented to thoroughly clean the pipelines, with adjustments made based on the debris removal results.
- System Setup: The pigging process was carried out using temporary setups to ensure cost-efficiency and adaptability to the client’s infrastructure.
Key Considerations:
Throughout the project, our flexible approach allowed for adjustments based on the results of each pigging campaign. This ensured that the pipeline system remained undamaged and performed optimally, particularly in sections with sensitive materials.
