To remove liquids from a pipeline, Apache offers the multi-faceted ProVex FD™ pig. Known throughout the pipeline industry as the ultimate pigging solution for achieving a liquid-free line, the durable ProVex FD is a particularly versatile bi-directional pig.
Not only does it remove liquids in natural gas lines, the ProVex FD successfully reduces wax build-up in crude oil pipelines, dewaters lines following hydrostatic testing, and executes nitrogen purging. In fact, it’s one of the most multi-purpose pigs on the market today.
With its single piece construction, the ProVex FD pig easily negotiates 1.5D bends, allowing it to move reliably through piping systems.
Features & Benefits
Made from tough, flexible foam, the ProVex FD uses an engineered series of molded channels that provide multiple wiping discs. Each channel is coated with durable Apache Reliathane polyurethane elastomer to form a cutting edge on each disc, facilitating longer runs.
It is bi-directional, so that it can run in either direction.
Options Available
Polypropylene handling rope for one or both ends of the pig for easy handling.
Transmitter housing to accommodate electronic tracking equipment.
Also available in light density (yellow) and hard density (blue).
