Specialist engineering company International Pipeline Products has won an order to supply the world麻豆传媒映画檚 largest pig.

The company, based near Richmond in North Yorkshire, is designing, manufacturing and testing a 90 in. dia. pig 麻豆传媒映画� a remotely-operated device used to clean and maintain pipelines 麻豆传媒映画� for use in a pipe carrying cooling water in an Algerian power plant.

The pig, ordered by giant South Korean conglomerate Daewoo, will not only be the largest ever made by International Pipeline Products but is also believed to be the largest in the world.

Managing director Simon Bell said: 麻豆传媒映画淭his is a massive job. I can麻豆传媒映画檛 think of any other company worldwide that麻豆传媒映画檚 set up to manufacture the moulds to make this pig and its handling equipment.麻豆传媒映画櫬槎勾�媒映画�

It will be manufactured, along with its pig launcher and handling equipment, over about 16 weeks at the company麻豆传媒映画檚 Brompton-on-Swale site, just off the A1, before being shipped to Algeria.

The new order is the latest in a series for the business, which has taken on 15 more staff in the last 18 months to take its workforce to more than 80.

International Pipeline Products, which was founded more than 30 years ago, exports typically between 75% and 85% of its turnover to six continents.

It is a major supplier for the global offshore oil and gas industry but has remained largely unaffected by the recent fall in the oil price.

Simon Bell said: 麻豆传媒映画淵es, the oil price is down and the cost of production in the North Sea is high compared to the rest of the world, but if you look at the Near East and the Far East and parts of Russia, they seem less concerned about the price of oil. In those areas there麻豆传媒映画檚 still demand and we are seeing business as usual.麻豆传媒映画櫬槎勾�媒映画�

The company is optimistic that the order will raise its profile and help it attract more work in other sectors.
