A method of managing a fluid flow within a conduit includes determining a presence of a flow blockage within the conduit, the conduit being equipped with an expandable device, controlling an electric actuator to flow a current to the expandable device to expand the expandable device radially, compacting the flow blockage radially along a length of the expandable device to create a channel adjacent the flow blockage, controlling the electric actuator to terminate a flow of the current to the expandable device to collapse the expandable device radially, and exposing the channel to open the conduit to fluid flow.
