Int -oduction

Thi- engineering standard (ES) specifies the minimum requirements for the design,
mat~ufacture,testing and supply of intrusive (set-in mechanical) type pig signallers
equipped with a probe that intrudes into the pipeline / pig trap, for permanent installation
on QP onshore and offshore (except sub sea) carbon steel pipeline systems.

The purpose of the signaller is to provide feedback that the pig has been successfully
launched or arrived at the receiving station / that the pig has successfully passed through
the pig trap valve.

Pig signallers should normally be installed on both sides of the pig trap valve, as a
mir ;mum, as indicated in the enclosed schematics, Annexure-A.

The signaller on the downstream side of the pig launcher should be located on the
pip line at a distance from the main tee of at least one length of pig to be used, usually of
the intelligent pig.

For pig receivers one signaller should be located on the minor barrel at a distance from
the pig trap valve of at least one length of the pig to be used, usually of the intelligent
pig

Wf erever there are nearby flange joints / opening devices, example pig signallers located
on the pig trap equipment and it's surrounding, the intrusive type pig signaller can be
used. Intrusive type pig signallers can also be used on pipelines which will be routinely
pig ;ed at intervals of 6 months or more frequently, except as stated below, to avoid
sig ialler getting stuck in the line. The connection for intrusive type is via 2"NB branch
into which the pipeline fluid will enter and pressurize the housing of the pig signaller.

Thr intrusive types shall not be used in cases where the fluids are toxic and unstable
(like ethylene), in which cases the selection shall be to use non-intrusive type. The
decision on what type of pig signaller is to be used shall therefore be decided during
PE FD / P&ID stage.

For non-intrusive (clamp-on / strap-on with local / remote sensing capabilities) type of
pig signallers (where the locations can be moved on the pipeline) refer to ES.5.06.0023.

Any detail or item not n:::ntio.i,I,! in this ES, but rrquird Q thc Systsm 1 Cc~?ifis;ltix
Agency / Regulatory Bodies, are to be included in the scope of supply.

All work shall be carried out in compliance with this ES, Codes, Standards and
Spmifications listed unless otherwise stated in the pig signaller data sheet &/or project
spc cification. In case of conflicting requirements the Manufacturer shall follow the more
strr ngent, and such issues shall be brought to the notice of QP in advance and shall be
agreed in writing.

Th: International System of Units (S.I.) shall be used.

Al' documentation and correspondence shall be in the English language.

The Custodian of this ES is EE (QP-Technical Services), who is responsible for the


accuracy and quality of its contents and for its future revisions where these are required

De 4gn and Engineering

De!iign Code

5.1.1 Thc design methodology as described in ASME VIII, Division 1 shall be used for the
design calculation of the pig signaller pressure housing.

Co ~nponentDescription

5.2.1 Thc intrusive pig signaller consists of the following components:

A trigger penetrating into the main bore of the pipe which will be moved by a
passing pig;
A transfer mechanism to transfer the movement of the trigger causing the trip of
a mechanical indicator and/or electrical switch;
A pressure housing, containing the transfer mechanism connected with the
trigger, having a flange of 2"NB for installation on to the pipeline;
A mechanical and/or electrical indicator mounted externally on the pressure
housing.

5.2.2 Additionally, for pig signallers on pipeline sections, which cannot be depressurised for
pig signaller maintenance or where installed on pipelines at buried locations:

A flanged ball valve of 2"NB, with or without a flanged extension, to isolate the
pig signaller from the pipeline;
A portable jacking tool for safe lifting of the transfer mechanism complete with
the trigger through the isolating valve with the main pipeline under pressure.
This shall be treated as an optional item while procurement of pig signaller, or if
an existing tool is to be used, manufacturer's confirmation must be obtained to
check the suitability of the tool with reference to the pig signaller model.

Functional Requirements

The functional requirements for the pig signaller should be as follows:

The trigger shall trip the mechanical indicator for local indication or an
electrical switch for remote indication or both when a pig passes the pig
Design, Manufacture, Testing and Supply of Pig Signaller (Intrusive Type)
ES.5.06.0024 Rev A
Page 5 of 17

signaller in any direction, per description stated in the respective pig signaller
data sheet.
After the pig has passed the pig signaller, the internal mechanism shall re-set
automatically to the position required for indicating the passage of the next pig.
Resetting of the signal mechanical indicator shall be undertaken manually only.
Resetting of the electrical switch shall be automatic;
The mechanical signal flag or the electrical switch shall not be triggered by the
flow or pressure of the pipeline fluid;
The trigger shall not obstruct or damage a passing pig and the trigger shall not
be damaged by a passing pig;
The penetration of the trigger into the trap / main pipe shall be kept to a
minimum to avoid unnecessary obstruction of the fluid flow;
The trigger shall be corrosion resistant over a 25 year design life of the signaller.
