Pipeline Pigging and
Pipeline Services
Pipeline Engineering, a Circor
Energy company, is a market
leading global provider of products,
services and engineered solutions
for the pipeline pigging and flow
assurance industry. We have
particular expertise in the design
and manufacture of pipeline pigs,
which are engineered to meet the
specific requirements of individual
pipelines.

Foam Pigs
Pipeline Engineering’s
Foam Pigs are used in
pipelines for liquid removal,
swabbing, drying, product
separation, cleaning and as
part of progressive pipeline
cleaning campaigns.
These foam pigs are ideal
for all pipelines, including
complex piping systems
with tight radii or mitred
bends and pipelines where
significant variations in
internal diameters exist.

Solid Cast Polyurethane Pigs
Pipeline Engineering’s Solid
Cast Pigs are produced
from our high grade allpolyurethane formulation
which gives them excellent
chemical and abrasion
resistance.
Typically, Solid Cast Pigs
are used as sealing pigs to
remove debris and to keep
pipelines clear of deposit
build-up. Solid Cast Pigs
are also used for batching
operations. They do not
require maintenance and are
designed to be disposable,
making them the preferred
type of pig when metal bodied
pigs are unsuitable.
The flexibility of our Solid
Cast Pigs makes them ideal
for use in complex pipeline
geometries and small
diameter pipelines,
typically found in process
plants.

Metal Bodied Pigs
Pipeline Engineering is
a market leader in the
design and manufacture of
metal bodied pigs, with our
expertise having been gained
over many years of operating
in the Oil and Gas sector.
In-house expertise means
that we can produce metal
bodied pigs to meet the
specific requirements of
pipelines where they will be
used. This is achieved by
designing these Metal Bodied
Pigs with a combination
of components including
Cups, Discs, Brushes,
Plough Blades, Gauge
Plates, Magnets and Tracking
Equipment.
Our Metal Bodied pigs are used during all phases
of a pipeline life cycle

> Gauging Pigs
Metal bodied pigs are designed to be re-usable with replacement cups, discs and other
components available. Pipeline Engineering also add wear lines and unique identification
numbers to our discs to indicate when they need replacing, therefore helping to ensure
continued effective pigging.
Sizes Available
> Metal Bodied Pigs are available for pipelines ranging from 6” - 60”
> Other sizes are available on request

Specialty Pigs
Pipeline Engineering
designs and builds specialty
pigs to meet the specific
pigging requirements of
complex and demanding
pipelines. This is achieved
through analysis of the
existing pipeline issues
including assessment of all
pipeline features.
Using this information we
design, prototype, test and
produce bespoke pigs for
specific pipeline pigging
requirements.
Using specialist pigs
developed this way enables
innovative and highly
effective solutions to be
provided, as well as ensuring
safe and efficient passage of
the pig through a pipeline.
Computer Aided Design
State of the art 3D CAD design capability
allows us to initially develop specialty pigs
and simulate their functionality.
Pig Development and Testing
Specialty pigs are routinely tested in our
purpose built test loops. This process
allows analysis of performance against the
predetermined criteria. It also allows further
design refinement to be implemented to
benefit specialty pig performance when in
fully operational conditions.

pig designs are transferred to our computer
aided manufacturing system for production
and assembly.

Pipeline Spheres
Pipeline Engineering’s
range of Pipeline Spheres
are predominantly used
for batching or separation
operations in pipelines and
removal of liquids from gas
pipelines.
Pipeline spheres are
extremely adaptable and
ideal when negotiation
of short radius bends in
pipelines is required.
