A carriage (28-28B) has rollers (58-58B) supported on the outer surface of a pipeline (10) for movement therealong in the cleaning operation for the pipeline. A nozzle assembly (86-86B) is mounted for oscillating movement relative to a supporting frame in a direction concentric to the outer peripheral surface (58) of the pipeline (10) with fluid discharge nozzles (104-104B) mounted on the nozzle assembly for discharge of pressurized fluid against the surface of the pipeline (10). In one embodiment (FIGS. 2-7) an enclosed cylindrical nozzle assembly (68) has rollers (96) thereon mounted on an outer fixed cylindrical housing for oscillating movement. In other embodiments (FIGS. 8-10 and FIGS. 11-12) fixed U-shaped yokes (61A, 61B) are positioned alongside pipeline (10) and support the nozzle assembly (68A, 68B) for oscillation.
