Operational Safety in Pig Launcher and Receiver Packages UAE

The integrity of oil and gas pipelines is a matter of national importance in the United Arab Emirates. To maintain high flow rates and prevent corrosion, operators must regularly clean and inspect their lines. This process, known as "pigging," relies on robust entry and exit points. At C&J Engineering, we provide the critical infrastructure for this task. We design and manufacture Pig Launcher and Receiver Packages UAE that allow you to insert cleaning tools and "smart" inspection pigs without interrupting the product flow. Our systems serve as safe airlocks for the high-pressure environment of the pipeline.
A standard package consists of more than just a steel barrel. It is a carefully engineered system designed to protect personnel and equipment. We incorporate "Quick Opening Closures" (QOC) that allow operators to access the trap quickly while maintaining a pressure-tight seal. Safety interlocks are a non-negotiable feature of our designs. These mechanical devices prevent the door from opening if there is any residual pressure inside the barrel. This "safety by design" approach is essential for preventing accidents in the field. We also install pig signallers, or "pig sigs," on the launcher and receiver. These devices provide a visual or electronic confirmation when the pig has successfully passed a specific point, giving operators clear visibility of the operation.
We customize every package to fit the specific needs of the pipeline. Some lines require frequent cleaning to remove wax or condensate, while others only need periodic inspection. We size the "major barrel" and "minor barrel" to accommodate the length and diameter of the tools you use. Whether you are running a simple foam pig for dewatering or a complex magnetic flux leakage (MFL) tool for corrosion mapping, our Pig Launcher and Receiver Packages UAE provide the necessary clearance and support. We mount the entire assembly—including the kicker lines, drain valves, and pressure gauges—on a rigid structural skid. This modular design simplifies transport and installation, allowing your team to connect the unit to the pipeline grid with minimal downtime.

Fabrication Standards for Pig Launcher and Receiver Packages UAE

The construction of a scraper trap requires a deep understanding of pressure vessel codes. We fabricate our units in strict accordance with international standards such as ASME B31.3, ASME B31.4, and ASME B31.8. Our facility in the Mussafah Industrial Area is equipped to handle the heavy wall thicknesses required for high-pressure gas and liquid lines. We use premium carbon steel and low-temperature alloys to ensure that the material retains its toughness even under extreme operating conditions. Every piece of steel we use comes with full material traceability, ensuring that your asset meets the rigorous demands of the UAE’s energy sector. d.
Welding is the most critical process in the fabrication of Pig Launcher and Receiver Packages UAE. Our welders are qualified to perform complex joints on high-yield pipe. We employ a rigorous quality control regime that includes 100% Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) on all butt welds. Radiography and ultrasonic testing allow us to verify the integrity of the joints before the equipment ever leaves our shop. We also perform a hydrostatic pressure test on the completed assembly. We pressurize the system to 1.5 times its design pressure to demonstrate its strength and leak-tightness. This testing phase is documented in a comprehensive manufacturing record book, which we hand over to you upon delivery.
We also focus on the long-term durability of the package. The external environment in the Gulf can be just as damaging as the internal process fluid. To combat atmospheric corrosion, we apply multi-coat industrial paint systems that resist humidity, salt spray, and UV radiation. For pipelines carrying corrosive sour gas, we can offer internal cladding or weld overlays to protect the wetted surfaces of the trap. C&J Engineering combines technical expertise with practical manufacturing skills to deliver reliable solutions. We invite you to partner with us for your next pipeline project.
