SEARCH TDW PIG TRACKING EQUIPMENT & TRANSMITTERS Solutions / Pipeline Pigging / Pig Tracking and Transmitters Pig tracking equipment enables operators to detect the exact location of pigs as they travel through the pipeline. By utilizing this technology, pipeline operators or service crews can respond rapidly to stalled pigs, which may pose an operational risk to the pipeline. In addition, operators can track the presence of the pig from the beginning to the end of the run, recording any unexpected speed excursions or periods of stalling in the system. Pig tracking is considered good practice, particularly when there’s a concern about a pig becoming stalled or stuck in the pipeline, such as during commissioning of a newly constructed system, or when working on a line that has been infrequently or never pigged. TDW offers SmartTrack™ technology specifically designed to meet offshore pig tracking needs. Both the TracMaster™ Pro and TracMaster™ Lite can identify and track multiple pigs simultaneously in the same onshore pipeline. Best used for: continuous monitoring and display of the passage of cleaning and inspection pigs, both onshore and offshore Key features: Enables through-wall communication capabilities. Detects, reports, and stores highly accurate details about pig passage locations. Information is available immediately via a real-time display. Locates a lost or stuck pig equipped with a transmitter. Transmitters fit inside all types of maintenance and inspection pigs. FAQs: How is pig tracking different from using pig passage indicators? Pig tracking provides the ability to continuously monitor the location of the pig inside the pipeline, from launch to retrieval. Pig passage indicators detect when a pig has passed a specific point in the pipeline. Can these systems be used to monitor multiple pigs simultaneously? Yes. Transmitters with adjustable pulse patterns or frequencies provide the ability to differentiate between multiple pigs. SmartTrack™ Communication System The SmartTrack™ two-way communication system enables pipeline operators to improve the safety of pigging operations by providing real-time monitoring of pigs and tools within the pipeline. LEARN MORE TracMaster™ Pro and TracMaster™ Lite With advanced permanent magnet tracking and locating capabilities, and sophisticated digital processing technology, TracMaster™ systems let pipeline operators keep tabs on as many as eight pigs simultaneously – even lost or stuck pigs.
