TT Technologies Offers Pipeliner Package
TT Technologies offers a
pipe rammer and bentonite
system for oil and gas pipeline installation projects.
The pipeliner package
features an 18-inch diameter Grundoram Goliath
pneumatic pipe ramming
system and Grundomudd
500 bentonite mixing/
delivery system.
During the ramming process the rammer is attached to the rear of the
casing, driving the pipe through the ground with repeated percussive
blows. The Goliath rammer installs steel pipes and casings from 24 to
56 inches in diameter. It can also be used for the slick-bore process,
installing a bore pipe which, when removed, pulls the product pipe into
place. Ramming provides accurate installation of casing in a wide range
of soil without surface slump, making it ideal for installations under
railways and roads.
The pipeliner package is also useful in HDD assist and rescue applications: to salvage product pipe after a failed bore; install conductor
barrel casings; remove stuck drill stems; and assist drills during product
pullback, preventing hydrolock.

Undetected pipeline
leakage is one of the most
environmentally and
financially damaging risks
to any oil, gas or water
pipeline operator. For this
reason, Hawk Measurement developed a stateof-the-art pipeline leak
detection system that not
only informs about the occurrence of a leak, but gives an accurate location
of any potential leakage, allowing for extremely rapid infield assessment and
repair.
Utilizing an infield fiber optic system (FOS), Hawk's novel solution combines multiple measured variables within the one cable, such as sound, temperature and vibration, enabling the system to automatically cross reference
and remove false signals.
FOS is a next-generation monitoring system that provides predictive analysis capabilities for better, informed decisions to optimize the service life of
pipeline assets. It seamlessly integrates into an existing digital control system
or supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA), and alerts operators
through a variety of digital protocols. It can also simply connect a screen,
mouse and keyboard to operate and observe the unit directly through the
built-in user/machine interface.
Based in Lawrence, MA, Hawk is a world leader in level, positioning and
flow measurement, providing cutting-edge and cost-effective equipment
to the global industrial market across a wide range of areas including water
supply/waste water, bulk material handling and chemical. (978) 304-3000,

The Vulcan Universal Pump
design is a revolution in
vacuum technology. Based
on air-flow technology, it
converts pressure energy into velocity energy that collects and transports
material over long distances through easy-to-handle 3- or 4-inch-diameter
hoses and pipes.
The vacuum system can easily and safely excavate around buried utility
lines to replace or repair without any damage. And it's explosion proof, making
it ideally suited for excavating natural gas lines.
The Ferret Vacuum offers a simple solution for cleaning up spills and excavating material, such as chemicals; water and fluids; minerals; mud, rock, dirt
and much; and roofing rock, in all types of weather powered by customers
portable air compressors.
Equipment can be mounted on the back of a pickup truck, skid, or trailer
and is powered by the customer's portable air compressor. And with no moving parts - no timing gears, blower lobes, liquid rings or rotating belts - the
pump is virtually maintenance free and requires no skilled labor to operate it.
In addition to the Ferret, two other sizes are available, the Mini Ferret and
Rhino, to fit contractors' and utility companies' desired application.
Vulcan Pumps LLC, a division of Brownlee-Morrow Enterprises Inc., is a
Birmingham, AL, supplier of wide-ranging products - pumps, metering and
control equipment - and custom solutions for industrial processes, especially
pumping abrasive and corrosive liquids. (800) 624-7069, vulcanpumps.com
