Cleaning

Maximising pipeline efficiency and reliability begins with thorough, targeted cleaning tailored to each system's specific requirements.

In addition to widely used cleaning solutions such as Debris Removal and Deoiling, we offer specialised products designed to address other technically demanding conditions, including:

  1. Wax Build-up
  2. Oil Emulsions
  3. Black Powder
  4. Biofilm
  5. Toxic Substances, such as NORM Scale or Elemental Mercury

Offshore Crew

Case History

An FPSO off the east coast of India had to be decommissioned. All risers has been thoroughly cleaned of hydrocarbons, gas, sludge, scale, and NORM by our Gel trains.

PRODUCT INFORMATION

Pipelines Range
Pipelines Range

Gel technology is very versatile and can be applied anytime during the lifetime of a field from helping to remove hydrotest fluids when commissioning to the bulk removal of hydrocarbons and solids prior to maintenance or when preparing a pipeline for responsible decommissioning.

Aquacide Gel
Aquacide Gel

Aquacide Gel is a water-based biocidal gel. The gel formula allows extended contact time, delivering highly effective biofilm treatment.

Aqualink Gel
Aqualink Gel

Aqualink Gel is an environmentally friendly crosslinked pipeline gel - great all rounder with self-healing ability. On the completion of a job, Aqualink Gel can be chemically broken down and be ejected directly to the sea as long as there is no liquid hydrocarbon contamination.

Atlas Pig
Atlas Pig

Atlas Pig is a highly flexible gel pig with shape memory used in situations where a mechanical pig cannot be applied. It is also capable of withstanding pressures up to 600 barg for up to 72 hours. This allows Atlas Pig to be installed during pre-commissioning.

Atlas Pig HT
Atlas Pig HT

Atlas Pig HTD is a highly flexible gel pig with shape memory, capable of withstanding pressures up to 600 barg for up to 72 hours. Storage up to 55°C, maximum working temperature 75°C.

Atlas Pig HTD
Atlas Pig HTD

Atlas Pig HTD is a highly flexible gel pig with shape memory and added trace dye for improved visibility, capable of withstanding pressures up to 600 barg for up to 72 hours. Designed for use at higher ambient temperatures up to 55°C.

Glycocide Gel
Glycocide Gel

Glycocide Gel is a glycol-based biocidal gel, suitable for water sensitive lines. The gel formula allows extended contact time, delivering highly effective biofilm treatment.

H-Gel
H-Gel

H-Gel is a non-crosslinked water based gel. The rheology of H-Gel has been carefully tailored to be highly thixotropic so it provides very high viscosity at low shear rates which makes it exceptional at suspending the active material which treats and converts captured Mercury.

Hydro Gel Pig
Hydro Gel Pig

Hydro Gel Pig is a pipeline pig made from a mixture of gelatine and water. Having a melting point of around 25°C it is typically used in colder climates and as with all gel pigs it is used in situations where a mechanical pig cannot be.

Hyper Gel Pig
Hyper Gel Pig

Hyper Gel Pig is a highly flexible gel pig with shape memory which is specifically designed for use in environments of extreme temperature. This means that Hyper Gel Pig can be applied under extreme pipe conditions and can also be stored in very hot or very cold climates without damage.

Hypergel A
Hypergel A

HyperGel A is a flexible silicone gel pig with shape memory which is designed for use in environments where standard gel pigs are not suitable. Due to its composition, it can be used over a wider range of temperatures circa -15 to +110°C.

M-GeL Pig
M-GeL Pig

M-Gel Pig is a highly flexible gel pig with shape memory used in situations where a mechanical pig cannot be applied. It is capable of extruding through chokes and restrictions up to 50% of its diameter and returning undamaged to its original size and shape once through.

M-GeL Pig Breaker
M-GeL Pig Breaker

M-Gel Pig Breaker is an oxidising agent in liquid solution which chemically attacks the polymer structure of the M-Gel Pig and eventually turns the previously elastic solid pig into a liquid.

M-Gel Pig HT
M-Gel Pig HT

M-Gel Pig HT is a highly flexible gel pig with shape memory, used in situations where a mechanical pig cannot be applied. Storage up to 55°C, maximum working temperature 75°C.

M-Gel Pig HTD
M-Gel Pig HTD

M-Gel Pig HTD is a highly flexible gel pig with shape memory and added trace dye for improved visibility, used in situations where a mechanical pig cannot be applied. Designed for use at higher ambient temperatures between 40°C and 55°C.

Mono Gel Pig
Mono Gel Pig

Mono Gel Pig is a pipeline pig made from a mixture of gelled monoethylene glycol and water. Having a melting point of around 30°C it is typically used in colder climates and as with all gel pigs it is used in situations where a mechanical pig cannot be.

Petrosurf
Petrosurf

Petrosurf is a blend of oil soluble surfactants in an aromatic hydrocarbon carrier fluid. It is added to hydrocarbons such as diesel or kerosene to provide surface tension reduction to help destabilise and break crude oil emulsions.

Pyrogel
Pyrogel

Pyrogel is a non-crosslinked water based gel. The rheology of Pyrogel has been carefully tailored to be highly thixotropic so it provides very high viscosity at low shear rates which makes it exceptional at suspending Black Powder (Iron Sulphide) allowing it to be treated. Read More

Pyrotreat
Pyrotreat

PyroTreat is a liquid Black Powder (iron sulphide) treatment. The formulation of PyroTreat has been carefully tailored to be chloride free, reducing chloride stress cracking in steels.

Solclean Gel
Solclean Gel

SolClean Gel is a pipeline gel specifically designed to clean oil and other hydrocarbons from pipe walls leaving them water wet. It is especially useful during maintenance or decommissioning where strictly low oil in water targets are expected.
