Abstract :
    In cases such as cleaning, removal of water and review pipelines need to pigging. Pigging at regular intervals makes the pipe was gas condensate, it prevented generally drop pressure pipelines and thus increases the flow efficiency. In this article, we discuss a variety of conventional and intelligent pigging and also proposing of construction new pigging has been considered and also was reviewed the problems of the blocking pigging way iv the pipelines. In this context paid to a few design pigging that was used reverse engineering in the design of them. Also Some of them can design and produce by change in the structure of existing pigging and other items with modern science. Then according to research conducted were produced pigging smart at 5 countries : America, Britain, Germany, France, Russia . Although few cases seen in Korea and Japan, but in this 5 countries is produced different pigging. There isn’t little companies in Iran and now they will cater themselves requirements at Oil projects of Sawa Oil Company that it is one of the pigging builders , that we must say, these pigging are of lower quality than other countries and hope that in new future Iran achieve technology of manufacturing Smart pigging.
