Definitions
- the invention described herein is a pipeline pig that is moved through the interior of a pipeline by the flow of pressurized gas and that provides improved distribution of treating liquids such as inhibitors, subsisting in the lower portions of the pipeline.
- the invention described herein is a pipeline pig that provides a method of applying a treating fluid, such as an inhibitor, within a pipeline to specific longitudinal areas along the inner wall of the pipeline and particularly to the upper interior portions of the interior wall of a pipeline.
- a treating fluid such as an inhibitor
- Pipelines are customarily made of metal and usually of steel.
- Steel is the preferred metal for construction of a pipeline due to its inherent strength, availability and economy.
- steel is subject to corrosion as a consequence of oxidation or reaction with gasses or liquids, such as water, that is commonly encountered when large volumes of gas are delivered through a pipeline.
- gasses or liquids such as water
- the liquid can be moved by the flow of gas through the pipeline or more commonly, by the use of pipeline pigs inserted into the pipeline that are moved by the flow of gas, the pigs serving to provide a moving plunger within the pipeline that tends to sweep liquid within the pipeline before it and to therefore move the liquid through the full length of the pipeline.
- One method of applying a treating liquid to the interior of a pipeline is called
- a second method of treating the interior cylindrical surface of a pipeline is called the "injection method.”
- the treating liquid is injected directly into the pipeline and is moved by gas flow to carry the liquid through the length of the pipeline.
- This method is costly and usually requires that treating liquids be more or less continuously injected into the pipeline.
- There is no direct application, in this method, of the treating liquid to the inner wall since liquid simply rests on the bottom interior surface of the pipeline as it moves along the length of the pipeline.
- the pipeline pig of this invention provides a method of distributing liquid present in the lower portion of a pipeline to the interior upper quadrant of the pipeline interior as the pig passes by the flow of gas through the length of the pipeline.
- the invention herein is a pipeline pig that is moved through the interior of a pipeline by the flow of pressurized gas and that provides for improved distribution of treating liquid, such as an inhibitor, subsisting in the lower portion of the pipeline.
- the pipeline pig has a longitudinal pig body having a forward end and a rearward end.
- Forward and rearward centralizers are affixed to the pig body by which it is supported centrally in the pipeline and by which it is moved by gas flow through the pipeline.
- These centralizers are preferably in the form of elastameric cups or disks, each having an external circumferential surface that closely conforms to the internal circumferential surface of the pipeline.
- a bypass passageway is provided through the pig body that communicates with the pipeline interior rearward end.
- a separate siphon passageway communicates with a lower portion of the pipeline interior, the siphon passageway being preferably positioned adjacent the front end of the pig body.
- a venturi is supported by the pig body in communication with the siphon passage and with the bypass passageway.
- a flow of gas through the bypass passageway serves to draw liquid through the siphon passageway and, employing the Bernoulli effect, the liquid from the siphon passageway is discharged onto an upper portion or upper portions of the interior pipeline wall. In this way, as the pipeline pig is moved through the interior of a pipeline, liquid is moved by the application of Bernoulli's law to be sprayed onto the upper interior portion of the pipeline.
- the method of distributing liquid present in the lower portion of a gas pipeline to the interior upper surface of the pipeline includes the steps of passing a pig having a venturi therein that is activated by gas pressure taken from a rearward end portion of the pig siphoning liquid from the lower interior portion of the pipeline by venturi action, and distributing the siphon liquid to the pipeline upper interior surface.
- FIG. 1 is an elevational cross-sectional view of a pipeline pig that encompasses the principles of this disclosure.
- the pipeline pig of FIG. 1 has a first fluid reservoir within the interior of the pig body and a second, forward reservoir in the nose cone portion of the pig for purposes that will be described in detail subsequently.
- FIG. 2 is an elevational cross-sectional view of a pipeline pig as in FIG. 1 but in the embodiment wherein only a body reservoir is employed.
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line 3-3 of FIG. 1. This view is taken through a portion of the rearward cup of the pipeline pig and shows the passageway for bypass gas flow to enter the rearward end of the pig body.
- FIG. 4 is an elevational cross-sectional view taken along the line 4-4 of FIG. 1 showing the midsection of the pipeline pig body.
- FIG. 5 is an elevational cross-sectional view taken along the line 5-5 of FIG. 1 showing a cross-sectional view of a portion of the nose cone and of the area that forms the forward reservoir.
- FIG. 5 also shows a secondary channel that draws fluid from the forward reservoir for ejection by the spray nozzle.
- FIG. 6 is an elevational front view of the pipeline pig as taken along the line 6-6 of FIG. 1 showing the nose cone and the spray nozzle in the nose cone through which liquid is ejected by bypass gas flow.
- the first embodiment to be described is the simpler of the two illustrated embodiments ⁇ that is, it employs only a single body fluid cavity and is illustrated in elevational cross-sectional view in FIG.2.
- the cross-sectional views of FIGS. 3, 4 and 6 are applicable to the embodiment of FIG. 2.
- the pipeline pig of FIG. 2 includes a longitudinal cylindrical body 10 that is preferably made of a rigid material, such as of a metal pipe. Body 10 has a rearward end 12 and a forward end 14. Radially extending from adjacent the rearward end 12 is a rearward flange 16 and a substantially identical forward flange 18 extends from the exterior cylindrical surface of body 10 adjacent to forward end 14.
- a rearward cup Positioned at the pig body rearward end 12 is a rearward cup generally indicated by the numeral 20 and in like manner positioned adjacent the body forward end 14 is a forward cup generally indicated by the numeral 22.
- Cups 20 and 22 are preferably made of elastameric material, such as a tough plastic or rubber. Urethane is a commonly used material for pipeline pig cups.
- Rearward cup 20 has a circumferential cup shaped recess 24 in the rearward surface that provides a flexible circumferential lip portion 26. Cup 20 is configured such that the force of gas flow through a pipeline pushing on the rearward end of the cup will tend to expand the circumferential lip portion 26 into sealing engagement with the pipeline interior cylindrical surface (not shown) so that the pig is moved by fluid flow through the pipeline.
- rearward radial disk 28 Positioned between rearward cup 20 and rearward flange 16 is a rearward radial disk 28 that is also preferably made of tough elastameric material. Disk 28 has an outer circumferential edge 30 that engages the interior wall of a pipeline and serves in a squeegee action to move any fluid in the pipeline with the pig as it is forced through the pipeline by gas flow.
- Rearward cup 20 has a thick inner body portion 32 having formed therein a rearward inlet passageway 34 that communicates at one end with the interior of pig body
- inlet passageway 34 is to permit gas to pass therethrough and to carry with it any fluid captured by the gas flow from the lower interior of a pipeline.
- Forward cup 22 is configured similar to rearward cup 20 and has a cup-shaped recess 38 that provides a circumferential forward cup lip portion 40 that is expanded outwardly by the force of gas flow to engage the interior of a pipeline in which the pig passes so that the pig is moved through the pipeline. Further, forward of and adjacent to forward cup 22 is a forward radial disk 42 that has a circumferential peripheral edge 44 that engages the interior wall of a pipeline. Disk 42 serves to move fluid in advance of the pipeline pig as it moves through a pipeline.
- a nose cone 46 Secured to the front of pig body 10 is a nose cone 46 that is preferably formed of elastameric material and has a central reduced diameter cylindrical portion 48 received in the forward end 14 of pig body 10 by which the nose cone is secured to the pig body.
- a radially extended portion of the nose cone serves to capture and hold in place forward radial disk 42.
- siphon passage 50 Formed in the nose cone is a siphon passage 50 having an inlet end 52 in communication with the lower interior of a pipeline (not shown) in which the pig moves.
- the opposite end 54 of siphon passageway 50 is an outlet end that communicates with a nozzle opening 56 formed in the nose cone.
- a gas bypass passageway 58 having a forward portion 58A that surrounds siphon passageway 50. This arrangement provides an annular gas passageway exit 60 at the outer end 54 of siphon passageway 50.
- a counterweight 62 that is preferably made of metal or is otherwise heavy so that the pig body will not rotate as it moves through a pipeline but will maintain an axial orientation relative to gravitational force to axially point the nozzle opening 56 in an upwardly inclined orientation.
- the pipeline pig When the pipeline pig is positioned in a pipeline that has treating fluid, such as a rust inhibitor or corrosion inhibitor liquid therein, the pig is moved by gas flow through the pipeline. As it moves through the pipeline the pig, and particularly radial disks 28 and 42, are configured to move liquid forward in advance of the pig so that the liquid will be carried from one area to another within the pipeline. As the pig moves through a pipeline and pushes liquid along ahead of it, some of the pressurized gas from the rearward end of the pipeline pig flows through rearward inlet 34, through the interior 64 of pig body 10 and out through bypass passageway 58 and 58 A.
- treating fluid such as a rust inhibitor or corrosion inhibitor liquid therein
- This gas flow surrounds siphon passageway 50 and draws liquid within the lower interior portion of the pipeline into inlet end 52 of siphon passageway 50.
- This is the application of what is commonly referred to as the Bernoulli principle.
- the Bernoulli principle states a relationship between internal fluid pressure and fluid velocity, essentially a statement of the conservation of energy that has, as a consequence, the application of a reduced pressure at the outer end 54 of siphon passageway 50 to thereby draw liquid from within this siphon passageway and carry it with the gas passing outwardly through annular gas passageway exit 60 so that a spray of liquid is formed that is ejected from nozzle opening 56 to cover an upper interior segment of the pipeline interior cylindrical wall (not shown).
- the inlet 36 of rearward passageway 34 is preferably placed, as illustrated in FIGS . 2 and 3 , close to the interior bottom of a pipeline through which the pig moves so that any liquid within the pipeline, rearwardly of rear cup 20, tends to be drawn in by gas flow.
- This liquid collects within the interior 64 of body 10 so that the interior body forms a reservoir 66 that carries liquid with it.
- Reservoir 66 functions as a source of liquid that is available in the event the pipeline pig passes an area that it is otherwise void of liquid.
- FIG. 1 taken in conjunction with the cross-sectional views of FIG. 3 through 6, shows an alternate embodiment of the invention in which the same or equivalent elements have the same numbers as in FIG. 2 but in all respects the arrangement of FIG. 1 is the same as FIG. 2 except that FIG. 1 provides, in addition to the first reservoir 66 within the confines of body 10, a second reservoir 68 that is formed within the interior of a nose cone 46A. Nose cone 46A is essentially identical to nose cone 46 of FIG.2 except for the provision of the second reservoir area 68. Further, the siphon passageway 50 includes a siphon tube 70 that has an open lower end 72 that communicates with second reservoir 68 formed in the nose cone.
- FIG. 1 An additional element in FIG. 1 compared to FIG. 2, is an inlet tube 74 positioned within second reservoir 68.
- Inlet tube 74 has an inlet end 76 (see FIG. 5) that extends through the outer circumferential wall of the nose cone that forms second reservoir 68, and an outlet end 78 that communicates with second reservoir 68.
- the liquid distribution pig of FIG. 1 compared to that of FIG. 2 functions in substantially the same way except that the liquid to be distributed on the interior surface of a pipeline through which the pig passes is primarily drawn from second reservoir 68 by the Bernoulli action of gas flowing through the forward portion 58 A of bypass passageway 58 and out the annular gas passageway 60, drawing fluid from within second reservoir 68. Liquid is forced into second reservoir 68 by the build up of liquid in front of forward radial disk 42. As liquid is drawn by the Bernoulli action from second reservoir 66, reduced pressure in the reservoir is created that draws fluid upwardly through fluid inlet 74 (seen in FIG. 5).
- FIG. 1 The advantage of the embodiment FIG. 1 compared to that of FIG. 2 is that a second reservoir is added within the pig so that if areas of a pipeline are encountered wherein no residual liquid treating resides in a lower portion of the pipeline there is more likelihood that the interior of the pipeline will be covered by the spray of protective liquid taken from either first reservoir 66 or second reservoir 68.
- the invention is illustrated and described with a single siphon spray however it is easy to see that more than one such siphon spray may be arranged in the nose cone if desired.
- front of the pig and a plurality of nozzles may be used so that thereby a complete 360°
