- Pipe-Pulse® - Blockage Remediation
Overview
Pipe-Pulse® is a non-intrusive technology which delivers controlled pressure pulse waves into high pressure lines, creating a dynamic force at the face of a blockage enabling its displacement from the system. These pulses will result in adhesive (full dislocation from pipe wall) or cohesive breakthrough (communication restored to enable chemical / fluid circulation).
This approach can be deployed on liquid filled lines with a range of existing mediums such as oil, MEG, corrosion inhibitors, seawater etc.
When used for umbilical core blockage remediation, the Pipe-Pulse® equipment is small enough to be manually positioned at the worksite by two Field Technicians.
For larger pipeline scopes, equipment weights are within the normal handling limits of offshore or onshore worksites.
Pipe-Pulse® is suitable for small diameter, high pressure lines ranging from ⅜” umbilical cores to 10” flowlines.
Why Pipe-Pulse® - Blockage Remediation Matters
Small diameter lines deliver a range of control, inhibition and production fluids across oil and gas infrastructure while often going unnoticed until issues arise.
The cause of blockages can range from things such as water ingress or a mixing of incompatible chemicals and due to the sizes of these lines, can present significant challenges in their remediation which can lead in the worst cases to a shut down of production.
Pipe-Pulse® is designed to resolve these issues quickly to remove blockages and restore flow with minimal interference.
How We Deliver
Pipe-Pulse® has a field proven track record in overcoming challenging blockages globally in lines of varying diameters and lengths.
The ability to deploy Pipe-Pulse® from congested topside locations or areas of onshore facilities where access is limited, gives operators the advantage in tackling blockages with minimal intervention or impact on adjacent activities.
What’s Included in Pipe-Pulse® - Blockage Remediation
Paradigm delivers Pipe-Pulse® as a full turnkey service including engineering, equipment and personnel supply.
Equipment can be provided for fast response air freight shipment on standard passenger aircraft.
