    Pipeline Pigging Handbook 10

    Uploaded by

    Bruno Gonçalves
    This document discusses different types of pigs used to clean and inspect pipelines including soluble pigs, specialist pigs for tasks like bypassing pressure or shunting, gel pigs using fluids or pre-cast gels for sealing, cleaning, and carrying inhibitors. It also discusses in-line inspection pigs using technologies like magnetic flux leakage, ultrasonics, or eddy currents to detect metal loss or changes in pipeline geometry and provides examples of commercial tools that use these technologies.
