Embodiment Construction

[0135] exist Figure 1 to Figure 3b A possible embodiment of a marine pipeline laying system 1 according to the invention is shown in .

[0136] exist figure 1 As seen in FIG. 1 , a marine pipeline laying system 1 for installing a subsea pipeline (not shown) including one or more accessories is installed on the deck 2 of a vessel 3 . In the drawing, a PLET (Pipe End Terminal Facility) 30 is shown. The vessel is preferably a dynamically positioned vessel capable of moving during pipelaying operations. The vessel moves forward while laying the pipeline on the sea floor. The vessel may be a monohull, but it is also conceivable that the vessel is semi-submersible or has a hull shape suitable for arctic conditions.

[0137] The marine pipeline laying system 1 comprises a pipeline water entry device 10 for launching a pipeline (and other objects to be explained below) in a working line 11 into the sea from a ship 3 along the seabed.

[0138] The marine pipeline laying system of...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a marine pipeline laying system (1) and method for lowering and / or raising a subsea pipeline and one or more accessories (30) it comprises, said system (1) comprising: pipeline entry into the water Device (10), pipe clamps (6a, 6b), accessory connection device and controlled load lifting device (19). The accessory handling device (20) is configured to include an accessory transport track (21) and a cart (23) adapted to engage and support one of the one or more accessories such that the accessory The operating device (20) is adapted to engage said accessory in an engaged position, to position said accessory at a pipe connection location above a pipe clamp (6a, 6b) in a working line (11), wherein said accessory Can be connected to the pipe and support and allow movement of the accessory between an engaged position and a pipe connection position.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a marine pipeline laying system and method for lowering and / or raising a subsea pipeline and one or more accessories comprised by the subsea pipeline. Background technique [0002] In most subsea pipelines to be laid it is necessary to install accessories, also known as assemblies on the ends of the pipeline and / or at one or more intermediate positions along the pipeline. These attachments are often very large and heavy, and are generally designed to be welded to the pipe. Examples of such accessories are: primary assemblies, pipe end termination facilities (PLETs), branch pieces, inline SLED assemblies, inline manifolds, pipe valves, tee assemblies with support structures and anti-settling plates. [0003] Such pipe fittings should normally be welded in line with the pipe. The attachment typically has pipe connection parts at its opposite ends to connect subsea pipes to these pipe connection parts. However, it is al...
