Specialist Cleaning

Pipe Cleaning Pig emerging from a pipeThe success of Pipeline Engineering is based on our ability to provide efficient and effective cleaning systems backed by comprehensive support and project management capabilities.

An appropriate cleaning regime is fundamental to successful pipeline management. By carrying out planned cleaning operations the operator will benefit from increased production and efficiency, improved reliability, system longevity, reduced pumping and operational costs, reduced safety risks and time spent on maintenance.

The ultimate purpose of pipeline cleaning is to enable the operator to achieve maximum returns from the pipeline by generating and maintaining the most efficient flow rates. The best way to achieve this is to determine and implement a specialist cleaning programme for a specific pipeline.

Specialist Cleaning Pig being deployedPipeline Engineering can offer specialist cleaning services which includes mechanical cleaning, chemical cleaning and thermal cleaning to ensure flow is maintained at the required level in a pipeline.

Our Field Engineers, working with clients, will survey the line taking into account all parameters affecting flow rates or likely to affect future flow rates and then depending on the level of support requested by the client, we can either take total control, through our Project Management Team, for implementation of a comprehensive cleaning regime, or provide products and advice to allow other parties to fulfil this requirement.

Specailist Cleaning Pig being RetrievedThe need of operators to ensure each line is operating at maximum efficiency, combined with the increasing number of pipelines transporting products from difficult to access fields, makes specialist cleaning even more important.

The range of cleaning services and in-house expertise from Pipeline Engineering ensures we are able to offer comprehensive support for clients and therefore help manage pipeline integrity requirements.
