2. Pressure test of new pipeline through ball and sweep line


Pressure test of new pipeline through ball sweep line

The ball sweeping line is an important process in the construction of long-distance pipeline. The construction method is to use compressed air to promote the pig to run in the pipeline to clean up the soil, welding slag and other debris.

Pipeline pig is a supporting equipment for pipeline cleaning operation driven by gas, liquid or pipeline transportation medium, and can carry other auxiliary equipment to complete various complex pipeline operations.
Dirt (water, soil, sand, stone, welding slag, etc.) will inevitably remain in the pipeline during construction. Condensate and corrosive substances accumulated during the commissioning and operation of the pipeline will affect the gas quality and gas transmission capacity (at the same time, it will increase the transmission pressure difference and energy consumption), block the instrument, reduce the measurement accuracy and aggravate the corrosion of the inner wall of the pipeline.
