Hello everyone,
Can anyone tell me if there are any standards/requirements for intelligent pigging of MEG pipeline.
Briefly, we operate an offshore MEG pipeline for injecting it into multiphase pipelines to prevent hydrates. During Basis of design the MEG
was considered as non-corrosive product (CA=1 mm) therefore there are currently no pig trap facilities (they were temporary provided for commissioning only).
The pipeline is being operated since 2009 and now I have to revaluate requirements whether or not the IP is required. It's obvious that if the line fails we are in trouble...
Much appreciate any answers, advice...
Thanks
Regards,
Klara
