Pipeline Pigging and Descaling
Cleaning pipelines efficiently, recovering product effectively
Pigging is a highly effective cleaning method that restores pipeline efficiency, prolongs asset life and recovers valuable product. This means fewer production disruptions, improved throughput and the maintenance of optimal flow without need for invasive or costly pipeline interventions.
InterGroup uses custom pigging systems to clean, descale and clear blockages in pipelines. This includes launchers, traps and push mechanisms suitable for oil, gas, water and process pipelines.
Benefits to our customers:
- Regular pigging helps control corrosion and buildup, reducing wear and extending asset life
- Cleaning internal process pipelines removes residual product build-up, scale and contamination in high-value production lines – restoring full flow and process control
- Our pigging systems are designed to push valuable product through to the end of the line – enabling 95%+ recovery and reducing waste disposal costs
- Reduces invasive maintenance or unplanned shut-ins by maintaining internal cleanliness, preventing corrosion and ensuring consistent throughput
- With no requirement for dismantling or hot work, pigging supports safe, non-disruptive servicing of operational pipelines
- Fewer disruptive inspections and less frequent need for invasive maintenance
