Information The current trend in the pipeline industry is to capture new markets that have not been accessible in the past. In order to capture these markets pipeline companies have seen the need to convert from their traditional service to meet the new demands. The changes may be as simple as changing from a liquid to gas service and or changing the direction of flow. 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 1,100 pipeline miles with sizes ranging from 2" to 36"; past projects have traversed terrain from -5,000' subsea level to elevations of 7,000' plus. The nitrogen used for the displacement of the pipelines may range from a purity of 95% up to 99.5%. The purity will vary depending on the customers 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%+) would be greater than that of a crude oil pipeline (94%-98%). NiGen International has the capacity to supply on-site membrane generated nitrogen (often in remote locations) with a 94% -99.5% purity range with moisture contents of -60 to -90ºF dew point. 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.
