In the oil and gas industry, maintaining the integrity of pipeline contents is crucial. HydroTech’s pigging systems are designed to help achieve this goal. Our pig launchers and receivers allow for the efficient insertion and retrieval of pipeline pigs, which clean and inspect the pipelines, ensuring that your operations run smoothly.
What Are Pig Launchers and Receivers?
Pig launchers and receivers are essential devices for pipeline maintenance. They allow pipeline pigs to be inserted into and removed from pipelines. These pigs travel through the pipeline, cleaning it and checking for problems such as corrosion, debris, and blockages. This process helps keep the pipeline clear and ensures the safe flow of line contents.
