Understanding Intelligent Pigging Systems

Intelligent pigs ("smart pigs") are robotic devices propelled through pipelines, equipped with sensors (MFL for metal loss, ultrasonic for wall thickness/cracks, caliper for geometry) to collect data on defects. They enable predictive maintenance, reduce leaks, and comply with safety standards. Globally, they address aging pipelines and support digital transformation with AI for real-time diagnostics.
