Chemical Batch Pigging Applications

If conventional pigging methods require additional cleaning or passivation requirements, a chemical treatment may be considered in the form of batch pigging.

Access to our own line of chemistry gives us a unique advantage to create customized blends specifically tailored to the scope. By utilizing a chemical batch pigging approach, our industrial chemist and engineers focus on data extracted from analyzing samples to characterize debris and select/design fit for purpose chemical. Batch pigs will also be selected by factoring in compatibility, required contact time, pipeline diameters, distances, elevations, and geometry. For example, customized film pigs can be utilized to leave a thin film of corrosion inhibitor in the event passivation is required.
