Pig Launchers and Receivers are pressure containing vessels or sections of piping within a pipeline system that are utilized for pipeline maintenance, cleaning, and inline inspection.
Pipelines are an essential part of the oil and gas industry and are the primary means of chemicals, gas and liquids transportation such as crude oil, natural gas, and even refined products. However, building a pipeline network is an expensive investment.
Maintaining this investment well and following its security is an important issue. One of the most important tools used in the protection and observation of this important investment are the pig traps.
