NiGen International has the staff and experience to help pipeline companies capture these new markets in a safe and economical manner. NiGen International can help develop procedures for the commissioning and decommissioning of pipelines, station facilities, and other petrochemical related installations. NiGen International has successfully completed both onshore and offshore projects for major pipeline companies.

   The projects have ranged from 1 to 1100 pipeline miles with sizes ranging from 8" to 30"; past projects have traversed terrain from elevations below sea level to elevations of 7,000' plus. The nitrogen used for the displacement of the pipelines may range from a purity of 92% up to 99.5%. The purity will vary depending on the customer's specific requirements and/or the needs of the particular product to be displaced. As an example, the purity required to displace an ethylene pipeline (99%-100%) would be greater than that of a crude oil pipeline (95%-100%).

   NiGen International has the capacity to supply on site (often in remote locations) membrane generated nitrogen with a 92% -99.5% purity range with moisture contents of - (minus) 60°c. Membrane generated nitrogen has proven to be a very cost-effective way of commissioning or decommissioning pipelines where large volumes of nitrogen are required. In some remote locations the traditional liquid nitrogen supply may not be a desirable option, in these situations NiGen International is ready to fulfill your requirements.
