Services, Products, Proprietary Equipment & Training
Pipeline Decommissioning
Decommissioning operations have become highly regulated needs for oil and gas operators. While the rate of execution is fast-paced and schedule dependent, the return on investment lacks value for the operators incurring the economic risks.
eelReel®: The Solution to Plugged Flowlines & Pipelines
The EelReel tool is an extended reach solution to clean plugged flowlines and pipelines.
ElastiPig - 1st Choice for Decommissioning
ElastiPig is a highly malleable, elastomer-solid pig that exerts minimal outwards pressure when transitioning flowlines. It creates 100% surface area contact with the pipe wall, providing excellent sealing capabilities. ElastiPigs are useful when used alone or in combination with mechanical pigs, pipeline gels and/or chemicals.
LiquiGel® - Gel Pig Technology
LiquiGel® pigs are reliable and superior alternatives for pipeline and process operators. Our “unstickable” pig gel technology demonstrates safe performance when measured against pipeline integrity concerns, or where multi-diameter, barriers to entry and exit, and multi-stage pigging challenges exists.
The BlueDog™: For Pipeline Flow Assurance & Maintenance
The BlueDog, utilizes a controlled jetting technique, allowing blasting action to penetrate the entire circumference of the internal pipe wall. This eliminates the bulldozing effect that often results in sticking of mechanical pigs.
Extended Reach Lancing
Extended Reach Lancing (E.R.L.S.) is BlueFin’s trademarked mechanical approach to solving prolific deposit and blockage challenges in pipeline and process systems. This mechanical approach combines high-pressure, heat, and chemical injection into one feasible procedure for operators experiencing obstructed flowline riser systems, production equipment, overboard water piping, and JTube systems, to name a few.
▸ Joint Integrity
Our industrial field services are centered around both onshore and offshore process facilities and industrial plants. This includes services such as filtration, controlled bolting, hydrotesting and other skilled work.
Millwright Services: Rotating Equipment
We provide precision alignment and leveling that assures the operator’s critical component downtime and unnecessary wear is minimized and that unwarranted risks are mitigated.
Cold Cutting & Beveling
For cases where safe and complete omission from flames are essential, cold cutting applications deliver safe, reliable results.
Field Machining
For cases where safe and complete omission from flames are essential, field machining and cold cutting applications deliver safe, reliable results.
Hot Bolting
BlueFin’s tenure and expertise in controlled bolting and joint integrity measures and monitors bolt relaxation, gasket creep, direct load loss, friction variable reduction, and direct axial force.
Controlled Bolting & Joint Integrity
BlueFin’s tenure and expertise in controlled bolting and joint integrity measures and monitors bolt relaxation, gasket creep, direct load loss, friction variable reduction, and direct axial force.
Line Isolation & Inline Weld Testing
Inline isolation tools advance safe construction tasks related to welder safety, pressure testing, and weld seam integrity testing.
Inline Isolation Tool
The traditional way of isolating a flowline, is to install numerous blind and skillet flanges, as well as utilizing air movers, to clear the flowline of harmful vapors. When utilizing air movers, you aren’t always able to control where the vapors go once released to the atmosphere. Wind direction plays a major part in this process.
