The Issue
Tasmanian Irrigation contracted Clearflow Australia to pig a 600 – 500mm DICL pipeline to remove the build up of iron and manganese slimes in the Winnaleah Irrigation Scheme in North Eastern Tasmania. After a site inspection, problem analysis and consultation, the appropriate equipment was determined to make the process as efficient as possible.
The Solution
The pigging runs removed large quantities of fouling material. During the process items were identified to streamline the process of future pigging operations.
