At Pipeline Engineering, we take the approach that no two pipelines are alike. We do not offer the closest equivalent off the shelf product, but review each project enquiry as a unique requirement, designing each item to meet the customers specific needs. The solution is then built up of modular component parts on our 3D SolidWorks CAD system, to ensure that the product will provide the most effective service. These designs are then transferred to our computer aided manufacturing system for timely manufacturing and assembly. In view of the critical nature of a pipeline and its component parts with respect to the environment, safety and the economic importance of oil & gas, our products are tested to exacting standards before packaging and shipping. Where required, the products are tested in simulated pipeline conditions, to ensure the maximum effectiveness.

Selection of Spheres

Pipeline Engineerings unique Omnithane chemical formulations, providing unrivalled wear resistance and tear strength, are used in the manufacture of polyurethane parts. Delivery plays an important part in our business. The Company has invested in the latest CNC production equipment and processes to meet the most demanding delivery schedules of the industry.

Polyurethane Products
Polyurethane expertise for pipeline and engineering requirements
Pipeline Engineering, trading under the name of Polyurethane Engineering, has developed expert knowledge in the manufacture of polyurethanes. This enables us to produce products for pipelines and other general engineering requirements. These include: > > > > > > > Specialist Pig Components Pipeline Bend Stiffeners/Limiters Filtration Screens Pipeline Clamps Track Pads Cable Protectors General Polyurethane Components

Bend Stiffener

Polyurethane Expertise Omnithane is Pipeline Engineerings own unique range of polyurethane formulations, specifically developed for the pipeline pigging industry, to withstand the harsh conditions found in all types of pipeline systems. Proven time after time in third party trials, the wear resistance and tear strength offered by this range of materials are unrivalled in the pigging industry, with pigs having travelled up to 840km in a dry gas pipeline, in a single run, during pre-commissioning operations. Where possible, Pipeline Engineering has a policy of using environmentally friendly chemicals and avoids the use of hazardous chemicals such as MbOCA.

Product Testing

The potential for pipeline operators to improve their production, reduce operational and maintenance costs and increase revenue through flow assurance products and services is substantial. At Pipeline Engineering it is our objective to help our customers throughout the world to not only capitalise on this flow assurance opportunity, but also help improve the health, safety and environmental issues surrounding their operations. It is our intention to differentiate ourselves within the industry by offering engineered solutions for customers unique requirements rather than offering the nearest off the shelf fit. By careful analysis of the problem, being flexible and open in our approach, prototyping of alternative solutions and trialling to find the most suitable method of operation, we are able to make substantial savings for our customers. Whether at the design phase in specifying the pipeline geometry, at the construction phase laying the line, during the operational phase of cleaning lines and maximising flow or during pipeline inspection, Pipeline Engineering is here to help with your flow assurance issues.
