Smart Pigs Market Segmented By problem category such as Dents, Cracks, Corrosion, Route Surveying, Loss of Coating with Onshore and Offshore application
The smart pigs are called as In-line inspection (ILI) smart pigs and they are used to travel through pipelines which will help the pipeline operators to detect issues in the internal portion of pipeline. Smart pigs are also used to perform preventative maintenance activities before an incident or accident occurs which would led to delay or leak. These smart pigs are widely used in oil and gas pipelines and installing smart pigs have reduced nearly 3/4th of incidents in pipelines.
The key advantage of smart pigs is that it is automatic and there is no need for halting flow of materials through pipelines. Further, the smart pigs are useful in inspection and cleaning which allows the pipeline to be completely inspected without any inspector or man power to monitor the inner section of the pipelines. The cleaning and inspection services are performed by smart pigs in a single time which saves time, money and enhances efficiency and life time.
The major difference between the smart pigs and the rest of pigs is that it can register the pipelines exact location in three dimensions (3D). Further, smart pigs can measure the actual wall thickness of pipelines for the determination and identification of wall thickness loss due to corrosion and wear, and for future comparison.
