Displacement and pigging

Pipeline maintenance is essential to ensure a safe system. Delaying maintenance increases the risk of unsafe situations, production issues, and unexpected costs.

Key disciplines in this include:

• Prevention and regular inspections
• Cleaning the interior of the pipeline
• Repairs

Displacement of pipelines

Many of these maintenance operations require full or partial emptying of the pipeline, a process known as displacement. During this process, the contents of the pipeline are collected and stored safely. This emptying of the pipe is usually carried out using nitrogen and pigs.

Cryotainer and displacement

As an expert partner in industrial gases, Cryotainer offers comprehensive support for these operations with our nitrogen services, operators and materials. We supply gaseous nitrogen at the right pressure and flow to push pigs through the pipeline, ensuring effective and safe displacement. This allows companies to continue maintenance, inspections and cleaning with minimal interruption.
