Pipe Pigout 2.0.0

Air Products Pipe Pigout is a practical application designed to assist pipeline professionals in calculating the necessary nitrogen volume and timing for purging or "piggings" within pipelines, based on user-inputted operational parameters. Its functionality is accessible via iPhone or iPad, facilitating on-the-go analysis for quick decision-making.

The workflow involves selecting the pipeline's fluid type—options include common substances such as diesel fuel and water—or inputting specific fluid properties tailored to the project. Users then provide key project details, including pipeline length, elevation data, desired pig travel speed, and back pressure conditions.

Utilizing this information, the app computes relevant parameters such as volume, flow rate, and pressure required to effectively propel the pig and complete the purge or displacement process. The results are presented in a clear, user-friendly format, aiding in planning and operational decisions. Users have the ability to assign a name to each calculation and store it locally on their mobile device for future reference.

Additional functionality includes the option to email the calculated data directly to the Air Products APEX Services team. This integration allows for prompt consultation with experienced professionals, streamlining service ordering and project coordination.

As a free tool, this application has the potential to become an essential resource in the field, enhancing efficiency and precision in pipeline projects. Consider integrating it into your workflow for more streamlined operations.
