Advanced Pipeline Cleaning

The buildup of solids or sediment in pipelines causes significant decline in operating efficiency, especially in deep water where depths and water temperatures already create a variety of flow problems. The N-Spec business unit is the worldwide leader in pipeline cleaning online, removing waxes, asphaltines, hydrates, and other production-robbing solids that cause blockages in pipelines.

Fighting Pipeline Blockage

For Pipeline Cleaning, N-Spec offers a full line of highly concentrated liquid surfactants, polymers, and dispersants specifically designed to fight pipeline blockages. N-Spec chemicals effectively penetrate dense solids to reach the pipe surface and reduce the adhesive forces that bond line contaminants, cost effectively eliminating pipeline blockage without damaging the pipe for superior pipeline cleaning.

Expert Services

Backing up the N-Spec product line is a team of highly trained specialists experienced in all aspects of pipeline cleaning and pigging. With the aid of our sophisticated computer software products, these specialists can provide customers with a broad range of technical services, including pipeline cleaning program design, solids monitoring during line cleaning, and laboratory services. N-Spec can also provide customers with all the equipment needed for any job, including our proprietary pipeline-cleaning separator, the N-Spector. With the N-Spector, pipeline operators can clean pipelines online or perform system improvements without ever shutting down operations.
