Has anyone seen a pig used for pressurising a pipeline or regulating pressure in conjuction with a PD pump?

I am looking at an application in which I would use a pig to pressurize my product line as is supplies product to a liquid filling machine. This system would be used to replace a normal pressurized hopper.

Any thoughts?
