Pig catchers in oil and gas operations facilitate efficient pipeline maintenance and inspection, prevent corrosion and blockages, enhance operational efficiency, and reduce maintenance costs and environmental risks.
Benefits
- Facilitate effective cleaning by collecting debris-removing pigs, maintaining optimal flow.
- Regular cleaning prevents corrosion, extending pipeline lifespan and reducing leak risks.
- Enable inspection pigs to detect and record pipeline conditions for proactive maintenance.
- Maintain clear flow paths, reducing downtime and enhancing productivity.
- Prevent blockages and corrosion, reducing maintenance costs and potential environmental fines.
When used as directed, it complies with NFPA 70, NFPA 77, and API 2003 standards for handling combinations of natural gas hydrates and pipe sludge from unprocessed natural gas pipelines, as well as crude oil and sludges from unprocessed crude oil pipelines.
