It would, however, mean that some method of recommissioning the pipeline would be required The design premise for the pig train was also altered by the construction work being subsea It was always intended that the pipeline would be vented down to static head pressure subsea, i.e approximately 13bar With the pig train in position and the pipeline cut, the pig train would be in dynamic balance, with 13bar... worst-case scenario of a topsides' leak or rupture at the far end leading to pipeline depressurization The full static head would then be acting across the pig train, and the divers could potentially be sucked into the pipeline if the pig train moved It was 210 Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this waterm Pipeline isolation - available options therefore decided that the pig train.. .Pipeline Pigging Technology Fig.7 Friction factor ratios Polymer quantity The estimated amount of polymer removed from the pipeline was 5m3 This estimate includes polymer removed from cut-outs, separators, and filter bags All of these held polymer in different forms,... on www.verypdf.com to remove this waterm Pipeline Pigging Technology surface-bearing area (that part of the pig that touches the pipe wall) to add wear resistance and sealing ability Abrasive surfaces such as steel wire brushes can be added to increase the cleaning and scraping ability HISTORY It is not certain when the first flexible foam pig was put into a pipeline, or who came up with the idea The
