Gauge Pigging

Before you start any kind of pipeline cleaning with pig technology, you need to gauge your pipes.  This is because you are going to need to make sure your piping is ready to take standard-size pigs for a variety of different purposes.  Pigging is great not only for cleaning, but also for inspections.  Inspecting your pipeline is crucial if you are going to run regular cleans.

Pipeline gauging projects involve looking closely at the interior diameter of a network.  This means that you will need a specific kind of pig to measure the inside of your piping, otherwise, standard size pigs are going to be at risk of clogging and getting blocked on route.  Rather than muddle around with manually measuring your pipes, a gauging program will ensure that you are ready to take on intensive cleaning pigs and more besides.
