Pipeline Pre-commissioning

All newly installed pipelines are required to undergo a sequence of pre-commissioning activities before they are ready for introduction of hydrocarbon products. Synertek are providing complete range of these pre-commissioning activities on various product pipeline systems. Execution philosophies are designed based on international industry standards following advance engineering practices and tools.

Air Cleaning is first activity after a pipeline section is constructed. Bi-directional or foam pigs are run with compressed air to clean the construction debris. This can also be combined with use of magnetics pigs to pick ferrous debris.

Gauging the pipeline internals to ensure no major dents or ovalities in the pipeline sections.

Caliper Runs required if gauging runs show any anomalies in the section.

Filling of pipeline sections with water using pigs, ensuring no air trap in the filled sections.

Hydrotesting of pipeline sections is to ensure the integrity of the pipeline section as per regulations and standards.

Dewatering is removal of hydrotest water using pigs. Synertek engineers design dewatering trains as per project requirements.

Swabbing is operation to remove remaining water and moisture from the pipeline segment.

Air Drying of pipeline sections is carried out to make pipeline system dry and saving pipelines from potential hydrate formation & corrosion issues.

Vacuum Drying helps drying of complex pipeline sections in highly efficient manner. Synertek experts design the vacuum equipment spreads as per customer pipeline systems and project requirements.

Nitrogen Purging is operation to preserve the system with gaseous nitrogen. Nitrogen being inert in nature protects the pipeline systems until commissioning.

Commissioning by introduction of hydrocarbons. Synertek engineering teams design commissioning plans and operational procedures, helping customers to successfully commissioning.
