The professionalism and flexibility shown by Clearflow to carry out this work for UGLK was a major part in this work being carried out and completed, the timescale we had in place to procure a pigging company's services was limited however David and his team responded instantly and provided the support we required to carry out these works on time and in a safe manner, hopefully we will work again in the not too distant future.
The Issue
UGL-Kaefer is contracted to the Longford Gas Plant facility in Gippsland, Victoria. Clearflow was contracted by UGL-Kaefer to pig the heater tubes of a gas fired heater to remove build-up of carbon coke to ascertain their condition and longevity. The tube line was 400m in length with ten 180 degree bends.
The Solution
Clearflow installed pig traps and used specially designed wire impregnated spherical pigs to remove hardened carbon build-up from the 180 degree bends. Similar debris from remaining pipelines resulting in 89-100 percent refurbishment of the internal bores.
