Decoking and Pigging
Pigging & Decoking
Catalyst resources PVT limited provides pigging and decoking services for furnace coils in refining and chemical processing operations. This mechanical cleaning service removes hydrocarbon coke and inorganic contamination that accumulates on the inner walls of furnace coils, increasing flow, restoring heat exchange efficiency and reducing differential pressure. The service allows customers to avoid costly outages, decrease production costs and enhance profitability while minimizing safety risks.

Furnace Coil Cleaning & Assessment
The service is performed with a progressive pigging system in combination with Catalyst resources PVT limited proprietary trailer-mounted pigging pumper that transports a cleaning pig though the furnace tubes using low-pressure water. A pig launcher is installed on a furnace inlet and pig receiver is installed to an outlet of the furnace, creating a closed-looped system in which the pig is pumped bi-directionally through the coil.
After cleaning and flow testing are completed, an optional inspection may be performed using instrumented “intelligent pigs.” These inspections assess the condition of tube walls to assist in further maintenance planning.
Technology & Expertise
Catalyst resources PVT limited has commissioned production of the most advanced and innovative pigging and decoking pumpers in the industry. These custom-engineered units feature twin and triple pump configurations, coupled with the most diverse selection of decoking pigs in the world. The pumpers are completely self-contained to prevent spills and are equipped with Tier 4F emissions-compliant engines.
