Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method for controlling the velocity of a pipeline pig, the method including, introducing a pressurized gas into a section of pipeline to be treated and maintaining the velocity of a smart pipeline pig at a predetermined velocity by regulating the pressurized gas to a predetermined volume. A method for controlling the velocity of a pipeline pig, the method including fluidically connecting a first skid to a first end of a section of pipeline to be treated, fluidically connecting a second skid to a second end of the section of pipeline to be treated, introducing a pressurized gas into the section of pipeline to be treated via the first skid, launching a smart pipeline pig into the section of pipeline to be treated, and maintaining the velocity of the smart pipeline pig at a predetermined velocity by regulating the pressurized gas to a predetermined volume.
