Pipeline Maintenance: Maintain, Inspect & Purge

The Argus Pig Valve, a unique solution, empowers operators to maintain, inspect, and purge pipelines of harmful substances by sending and receiving in-line pipeline gear/Pigs. Argus Pig Valves, with their versatility, efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and environmental friendliness, stand as distinct alternatives to traditional Pig Barrels.

  • Clear out wax, blockages, and black powder.
  • Mitigate corrosion.
  • Optimize production and revenue.
    • Introduce in-line inspection tools (ILI).
    • Lower GHG emissions.

Argus Pig Valves, suitable for both liquid and gas applications, offer significant benefits. Regular maintenance with these valves enhances the lifespan of pipelines, mitigates the risk of catastrophic failures, and optimizes operational efficiency. The use of ILI tools in conjunction with regular pigging further enhances the integrity of the lines, ensuring uninterrupted operations.

They are the perfect solution for the following needs:

Operators Needing to Reduce Emissions:
Argus pig Valves are the perfect solution for companies looking to reduce GHG emissions, making them an environmentally friendly choice. 

  • Reduces GHG emissions up to 91%.
  • Recommended by the USA's Environmental Protection Agency.

Operators Needing to Pig an 'Unpiggable' Pipeline:
The Argus Pig Valve's small footprint and versatility allow operators to massively increase the number of pipelines they can maintain.

Operators Needing a Safer and Simpler Operation:
Functionally simple design minimizes training and maintenance expenses.

  • Reduced infrastructure decreases field construction time and costs.
  • Built-in safety features and simple design protect personnel and reduce human error when operating.
  • Vertical orientation eliminates projectile threat during loading or removal of pig.
