Standard and Specialized Pigs
             Maintaining a legacy of pipeline pig success

             Weatherford’s Pipeline & Specialty Services group, through its Kopp heritage, has
             nearly 40 years experience in manufacturing and deploying pipeline pigs—setting
             standards in pipeline cleaning, inspection and maintenance. We offer an extensive
             range of high-quality, reliable pigs, either off-the-shelf or custom-designed to meet
             your specific requirements.

             Our pigs are available around the world and applicable to onshore and offshore,
             shallow and deepwater, industrial and municipal, single-phase and multiphase,
             and multidiameter pipeline applications.

             Our pigs are constructed of highly wear-resistant polyurethane material and
             incorporate innovative design features to maximize flexibility and reliability
             over a wide range of cleaning tasks.




                                               All pigs are manufactured in our facility, which
                                               is certified to ISO 9001:2000, OHSAS 18001
                                               and OHSAS 14001. The performance of each
                                               pig is analyzed in our test facilities to ensure your
                                               satisfaction. Our pigs are also available to meet the
                                               ATEX requirement for surface resistance of < 1 GΩ.

Pipeline Pigs


    Why pig your pipeline?
    Pigging is essential to maintaining and improving line flow rates, avoiding expensive blockage repair,
    inhibiting corrosion and facilitating more accurate in-line inspection runs.

    Whether your need is for conventional or specialized pigs, Weatherford has the necessary components to
    meet the needs of the industry. In this image, a customized gel-cleaning pig train is illustrated to show the
    structural design of the train in which the bidirectional and brush scraper pigs remove debris from the pipe
    wall as they pass through the line. Highly viscous pickup gel collects and transports the loose debris to the
    receiver. A separator gel protects the pickup gel and reduces any forward bypass of liquids.




                                                        Debris pick-up gel                                                 Debris on internal

Standard Pigs
              Offering a range of options for almost any condition

              Weatherford manufactures a standard range of pigs, including bidirectional (bi-di) pigs,
              cup pigs and poly/foam pigs. Each pig has several options available to meet your
              specific needs.



              Bi-di pigs are the mainstay of our Kopp
              pig line. These tough, versatile pigs offer
              remarkable efficiency and reliability under
              demanding field conditions. These pigs
              are based on a proven modular design with
              interchangeable components that enable
              bi-di pigs to be quickly adapted to any task.
              After completing a pressure-testing run, a
              bi-di pig can be left in the receiving trap,
              ready to be used during dewatering
              operations in reverse direction.

              Discs ranging from 2 to 60 in. can be fitted
              to the same type of body so that you can
              use the bi-di pig in a wide range of pipelines.

              You can use bi-di pigs during many
              maintenance, precommissioning and
              rehabilitation operations, including cleaning,
              filling, batching, dewatering and drying.

Pipeline Pigs




Cup pigs are built on the same body as the bi-di pigs and are equipped with cups of
abrasion-resistant polyurethane. These cups are considerably more flexible than normal
discs and have a lower contact pressure, making them ideal for long-distance pigging
runs in which wear is a consideration, such as during the commissioning of dry pipelines
and the separation of different media.


                                   Poly/foam pigs have a flexible, bullet-shaped body with
                                   a sealed, concave base. This coated base prevents the
                                   propulsion media from passing through the open cell
                                   foam. These pigs have several options, including
                                   a bi-di version, wear-resistant coating and brush stripes.
                                   You can use poly/foam pigs for cleaning and drying
                                   pipelines. The simple design means no need for
                                   special pig traps.



                                  In addition to our featured pigs,
                                  we offer a range of other pigs.
                                  Other standard pigs:
                                  •	 Polykast pigs
                                  •	 Sphere pigs
                                  •	Flex-I-pigs
                                  Other specialized pigs:
                                  •	 Tandem/dual-module pigs
                                  •	 Triple-module pigs
                                  •	 Bypass pigs
                                  •	 Pressure bypass pigs
                                  •	 Adjustable bypass pigs




                                                                             © 2011 Weatherford. All rights reserved.   5
Specialized Pigs
                 Tackling tough environments with specialized pigs

                 Pipeline conditions vary dramatically from site to site, and even
                 within the same well. To meet those challenges, Weatherford
                 also offers specialized Kopp pigs.

                 We manufacture a range of specialized pigs capable of meeting
                 the most demanding of applications. Like our standard pigs,
                 these specialized pigs undergo the same manufacturing
                 processes and rigorous testing.

                 Our range of specialized pigs includes:

                 •	 Dual-diameter and multidiameter

                 •	Contour

                 •	 Gauging

                 •	D-Scaling

                 •	D-Waxing




                 Dual-diameter and multidiameter pigs are
                 available for a wide-range of pipe sizes and
                 can be custom-built for even more choices.
                 These pigs provide innovative pigging solutions
                 to challenging pipeline diameter configurations.


                 Contour pigs and gauging pigs can help to
                 determine certain pipe characteristics. Contour pigs
                 can determine the minimum bend radius in pipes,
                 while gauging pigs are used to proof a pipeline’s
                 minimum bore.

Pipeline Pigs




                                                      D-Scaling pigs are designed to
                                                      remove hard deposits, such as
                                                      calcium carbonate, from the pipe
                                                      wall. The pigs consist of a tractor
                                                      module at the front equipped with
                                                      highly wear-resistant polyurethane
                                                      cups and two cleaning modules
                                                      equipped with studs.




 Couplings join all three modules, and the tractor module drives the coupled pig.

 The cleaning modules consist of heavy-duty polyurethane cups with an OD significantly
 smaller than the ID of the pipeline. Each cup is fitted with steel studs capped with
 balls designed to prevent damage to the pipeline walls. The balls are made of highly
 wear-resistant tungsten carbide steel; and the diameter across any two opposite studs
 is greater than the ID of the pipeline. This design ensures that the balls are pressed
 against the pipeline wall under a load and work to better break up the deposits.




D-Waxing pigs are designed to remove wax and paraffin deposits from the pipe wall.
Like the D-Scaling pigs, the D-Waxing pigs consist of a tractor module and two
cleaning modules.

The cleaning modules consist of heavy-duty polyurethane cups that have an OD
significantly smaller than the ID of the pipeline.

Each cup is fitted with an appropriate number of brushes to provide circumferential
coverage to cut into the accumulated wax deposits and shear them off. The OD of
any two opposing brushes is slightly larger than the ID of the pipeline so that the
brushes are pressed against the pipeline wall under a load, ensuring that the brushes
are better able to break up the wax deposits. This brush configuration helps to prevent
rotation of the pig.

Weatherford Pipeline pigs

  • 1. Pipeline Pigs Drilling Evaluation Pipeline & Specialty Services Pipeline construction Pipeline services Completion Abandonment Composite-sleeve repairs Inspection More Options. Better Results. Leak detection Pigging Precommissioning & commissioning Production Subsea precommissioning & commissioning Umbilical testing Process services Production chemicals Intervention Specialty drying services
  • 2. Standard and Specialized Pigs Maintaining a legacy of pipeline pig success Weatherford’s Pipeline & Specialty Services group, through its Kopp heritage, has nearly 40 years experience in manufacturing and deploying pipeline pigs—setting standards in pipeline cleaning, inspection and maintenance. We offer an extensive range of high-quality, reliable pigs, either off-the-shelf or custom-designed to meet your specific requirements. Our pigs are available around the world and applicable to onshore and offshore, shallow and deepwater, industrial and municipal, single-phase and multiphase, and multidiameter pipeline applications. Our pigs are constructed of highly wear-resistant polyurethane material and incorporate innovative design features to maximize flexibility and reliability over a wide range of cleaning tasks. All pigs are manufactured in our facility, which is certified to ISO 9001:2000, OHSAS 18001 and OHSAS 14001. The performance of each pig is analyzed in our test facilities to ensure your satisfaction. Our pigs are also available to meet the ATEX requirement for surface resistance of < 1 GΩ. 2 © 2011 Weatherford. All rights reserved.
  • 3. Pipeline Pigs Why pig your pipeline? Pigging is essential to maintaining and improving line flow rates, avoiding expensive blockage repair, inhibiting corrosion and facilitating more accurate in-line inspection runs. Whether your need is for conventional or specialized pigs, Weatherford has the necessary components to meet the needs of the industry. In this image, a customized gel-cleaning pig train is illustrated to show the structural design of the train in which the bidirectional and brush scraper pigs remove debris from the pipe wall as they pass through the line. Highly viscous pickup gel collects and transports the loose debris to the receiver. A separator gel protects the pickup gel and reduces any forward bypass of liquids. Debris pick-up gel Debris on internal pipe wall Bidirectional scraper Separator gel Brush scraper Actual slug lengths might be longer than illustrated. © 2011 Weatherford. All rights reserved. 3
  • 4. Standard Pigs Offering a range of options for almost any condition Weatherford manufactures a standard range of pigs, including bidirectional (bi-di) pigs, cup pigs and poly/foam pigs. Each pig has several options available to meet your specific needs. Bi-di pigs are the mainstay of our Kopp pig line. These tough, versatile pigs offer remarkable efficiency and reliability under demanding field conditions. These pigs are based on a proven modular design with interchangeable components that enable bi-di pigs to be quickly adapted to any task. After completing a pressure-testing run, a bi-di pig can be left in the receiving trap, ready to be used during dewatering operations in reverse direction. Discs ranging from 2 to 60 in. can be fitted to the same type of body so that you can use the bi-di pig in a wide range of pipelines. You can use bi-di pigs during many maintenance, precommissioning and rehabilitation operations, including cleaning, filling, batching, dewatering and drying. 4 © 2011 Weatherford. All rights reserved.
  • 5. Pipeline Pigs Cup pigs are built on the same body as the bi-di pigs and are equipped with cups of abrasion-resistant polyurethane. These cups are considerably more flexible than normal discs and have a lower contact pressure, making them ideal for long-distance pigging runs in which wear is a consideration, such as during the commissioning of dry pipelines and the separation of different media. Poly/foam pigs have a flexible, bullet-shaped body with a sealed, concave base. This coated base prevents the propulsion media from passing through the open cell foam. These pigs have several options, including a bi-di version, wear-resistant coating and brush stripes. You can use poly/foam pigs for cleaning and drying pipelines. The simple design means no need for special pig traps. In addition to our featured pigs, we offer a range of other pigs. Other standard pigs: • Polykast pigs • Sphere pigs • Flex-I-pigs Other specialized pigs: • Tandem/dual-module pigs • Triple-module pigs • Bypass pigs • Pressure bypass pigs • Adjustable bypass pigs © 2011 Weatherford. All rights reserved. 5
  • 6. Specialized Pigs Tackling tough environments with specialized pigs Pipeline conditions vary dramatically from site to site, and even within the same well. To meet those challenges, Weatherford also offers specialized Kopp pigs. We manufacture a range of specialized pigs capable of meeting the most demanding of applications. Like our standard pigs, these specialized pigs undergo the same manufacturing processes and rigorous testing. Our range of specialized pigs includes: • Dual-diameter and multidiameter • Contour • Gauging • D-Scaling • D-Waxing Dual-diameter and multidiameter pigs are available for a wide-range of pipe sizes and can be custom-built for even more choices. These pigs provide innovative pigging solutions to challenging pipeline diameter configurations. Contour pigs and gauging pigs can help to determine certain pipe characteristics. Contour pigs can determine the minimum bend radius in pipes, while gauging pigs are used to proof a pipeline’s minimum bore. 6 © 2011 Weatherford. All rights reserved.
  • 7. Pipeline Pigs D-Scaling pigs are designed to remove hard deposits, such as calcium carbonate, from the pipe wall. The pigs consist of a tractor module at the front equipped with highly wear-resistant polyurethane cups and two cleaning modules equipped with studs. Couplings join all three modules, and the tractor module drives the coupled pig. The cleaning modules consist of heavy-duty polyurethane cups with an OD significantly smaller than the ID of the pipeline. Each cup is fitted with steel studs capped with balls designed to prevent damage to the pipeline walls. The balls are made of highly wear-resistant tungsten carbide steel; and the diameter across any two opposite studs is greater than the ID of the pipeline. This design ensures that the balls are pressed against the pipeline wall under a load and work to better break up the deposits. D-Waxing pigs are designed to remove wax and paraffin deposits from the pipe wall. Like the D-Scaling pigs, the D-Waxing pigs consist of a tractor module and two cleaning modules. The cleaning modules consist of heavy-duty polyurethane cups that have an OD significantly smaller than the ID of the pipeline. Each cup is fitted with an appropriate number of brushes to provide circumferential coverage to cut into the accumulated wax deposits and shear them off. The OD of any two opposing brushes is slightly larger than the ID of the pipeline so that the brushes are pressed against the pipeline wall under a load, ensuring that the brushes are better able to break up the wax deposits. This brush configuration helps to prevent rotation of the pig. © 2011 Weatherford. All rights reserved. 7
