Problems solved by technology

[0011] When laying the pipeline, a hoisting system with enough sheaves must be used to support the load of the pipeline, but its disadvantage is that when the load is released from the mobile block, the mobile block can only move upwards relatively slowly, which limits the time of day. pipe laying length

Embodiment Construction

[0061]The system involves a vertical or near-vertical pipelaying technique, such as the J-lay technique, for introducing a pipe from a ship into the water in a substantially vertical orientation. The system provides an improved pipeline laying system for vertical or near vertical marine pipeline laying, especially deep water pipeline laying.

[0062] refer to Figure 1-7 The method described relates to an efficient method for laying subsea pipelines vertically or near vertically.

[0063] The pipelaying system provides the vessel as the main support structure. figure 1 and figure 2 A part of the ship is shown with reference numeral 1 in . exist Figure 3-Figure 7 In , the ship 1 is omitted for clarity of the drawings.

[0064] Lifting equipment 2 is provided on the ship 1 . The lifting device 2 comprises a tower 3 with a tower top surface 3a. A cable pulley 4 is provided on the top surface 3a of the tower.

[0065] The lifting device 2 also includes a moving mass 5 mo...

Abstract

The invention relates to marine pipe laying. For laying of an offshore pipeline, a system is used having a hoisting device (2). The hoisting device (2) comprises a tower (3) with a tower top side (3a) provided with cable pulleys (4). Furthermore the hoisting device (2) has a traveling block (5) which is displaceably attached to the tower (3). The traveling block (5) comprises a first block (51) and a second block (52), both provided with cable pulleys (6,7). The first block (51) is provided with a clamp (10) for holding a pipe section (20) to be connected to the pipeline (21) as well as for lowering the pipeline (21) after the pipe section (20) is connected to the pipeline (21). The hoisting device (2) has a hoisting cable (8) and a winch (9), the hoisting cable (8) being guided over the cable pulleys (4,6,7) on both the tower top side and the traveling block (5). The traveling block (5) is moveable with respect to the tower (3) by operation of the hoisting winch (9). The first block (51) and the second block (52) are adapted to be releasably coupled, in which coupled state they can travel along the tower (3) as a unit and are able to support the weight of the pipeline (21). The second block (52) can be locked to the tower (3), such that the first block (51) can travel along the tower (3) while the second block (52) remains stationary with respect to the tower (3).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an ocean pipeline laying system for laying a submarine pipeline, the system comprising: [0002] a) main support structure; [0003] b) the pipe connection station where the pipe section is connected to the uppermost end of the previous inlet pipe; [0004] c) a fixing clip for releasably fastening the uppermost end of the previous water inlet pipe, wherein the fixing clip is suitable for supporting the load of the previous water inlet pipe; [0005] d) Lifting equipment, said lifting equipment comprising: [0006] - a tower with a tower top face provided with cable pulleys, [0007] - a mobile block movably connected to the tower, provided with a cable pulley and a mobile clamp for clamping the pipe section to be connected to the pipe and lowering the pipe after the pipe section is connected to the pipe , [0008] - hoisting gear, comprising hoisting cables and winches, said hoisting cables being guided on sheaves above bot...
