HORIZON Industrial provided expertise for a pipeline cleaning program on a 7.5 kilometre long DN200 Sewer Mains located in the Adelaide Hills of South Australia.
The pipeline owner/operator had been experiencing operational problems such as service interruption, pumping inefficiencies and pipeline failures due to the steady build-up of debris in the internal bore of the pipeline. In order to reduce costly repairs and ongoing maintenance it was decided to clean the pipeline using Pipeline Pigs.
Removing the Pig Locating Transmitter from the rear of the Pipeline Pig
High-efficiency Pipeline Pigs were employed to clear choking debris from the 7.5 km long mains and the location of the pigs at any point along the pipeline could be confirmed using state of the art pig locating and tracking equipment.
After two Pigging runs a significant amount of debris had been cleared from the pipeline and the pumping efficiencies had returned to peak levels. The project was completed in two days and within budget.
With a wealth of field expertise and knowledge HORIZON Industrial has completed Pipeline Pigging Services and Air Scouring projects throughout Australia on pipelines ranging in size from 50mm (2”) through 2,400mm (94”) in diameter.
