Without pigging, product buildup, sediment, and slime

in pipelines increases and flow capacity decreases.
Eventually, the pipeline might even need to be replaced
entirely. The cost of the power needed to move the products also increases dramatically as buildup increases.
Without pigs for product separation, separate pipelines
would be required for different fluids. Pigs are a routine
part of pipeline operations.
