Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of submarine pipeline protection, and in particular relates to a submarine pipeline protection cover and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Today, fully developing marine energy resources and utilizing ocean space are crucial means of ending energy crises and resource shortages. Subsea pipelines, for example, are the primary medium for transporting oil and gas. Ensuring the safety of submarine pipelines during operation is crucial for ensuring marine development. However, with the surge in human marine activities, some pipeline laying areas overlap with ship operating areas. Third-party activities, such as ship anchoring platform operations, inevitably lead to anchor-drop accidents. Once submarine trawl equipment impacts, overturns, or drags submarine pipelines and underwater facilities, the risk of damage to the pipelines increases significantly, causing environmental pollution and economic losses. Currently, protective structures for underwater oil and gas facilities primarily include steel structures and cement blocks. Steel structure protection has the following main drawbacks: its heavy form, high installation and resource requirements, and relatively complex design and manufacturing. In some projects, the added weight of steel protection has led to adjustments to the overall design and significantly increased transportation, installation, and construction costs. Furthermore, it is highly susceptible to corrosion in marine environments, with electrochemical corrosion being the most serious. While corrosion can be slowed using coatings and cathodic protection, these measures themselves can cause significant pollution to the marine environment and significantly increase project costs. Cement briquettes, while simpler in structure and more corrosion-resistant than steel, also have drawbacks, including limited versatility, stress concentration at pipe and cable end connection points, and heavy weight. Furthermore, traditional pipeline protection structures are large, making them difficult to transport and install, making construction difficult and increasing project costs. Furthermore, localized damage to traditional protection structures requires dismantling and replacing the entire structure, significantly increasing construction time and costs.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0039] It should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "back", "middle", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operate in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present invention.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, one embodiment of the present invention provides a submarine pipeline protective cover, comprising multiple protective covers 1 and multiple horizontal connecting components 2. The protective covers 1 are bent to form a protective space for accommodating submarine pipelines. Semi-positioning protrusions 11 are provided at opposite ends of the top surface of the protective covers 1. A first positioning groove 21 is provided on the top surface of the horizontal connecting component 2. It is understood that the shapes of the protective covers 1 and the horizontal connecting component 2 can be designed according to actual needs. The protective covers 1 and the horizontal connecting component 2 are both made of fiber-reinforced composite materials. Fiber-reinforced composite materials are composite materials formed by winding, molding, or pultruding reinforcing fiber materials such as glass fiber, carbon fiber, and aramid fiber with a matrix material. Common fiber-reinforced composite materials are glass fiber reinforced composite materials (GFRP), carbon fiber reinforced composite materials (CFRP), and aramid fiber reinforced composite materials, depending on the reinforcing material. The length of the horizontal connecting component 2 is shorter than the length of the protective cover 1. The semi-positioning protrusions 11 include, but are not limited to, semicircular protrusions and elongated protrusions. It should be noted that the protective cover 1 and the horizontal connecting component 2 are integrally molded structural components.

[0041] When two adjacent protective covers 1 are joined in parallel, the two adjacent half-positioning protrusions 11 on the two adjacent protective covers 1 form a complete positioning protrusion, the horizontal connecting member 2 is sleeved onto the two adjacent protective covers 1, and the complete positioning protrusion is positioned in the first positioning groove 21. It can be understood that when the two adjacent protective covers 1 are joined in parallel front and back, the center lines of the two adjacent protective covers 1 coincide.

[0042] In the present invention, the protective cover 1 can be covered on the pipeline on the seabed, and the two adjacent semi-positioning protrusions 11 on the two adjacent protective covers 1 form a complete positioning protrusion. The horizontal connecting component 2 is sleeved between the two adjacent protective covers 1, and the first positioning groove 21 is sleeved on the complete positioning protrusion, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the docking between the connecting plates of the two adjacent complete positioning protrusions. The horizontal connecting component 2 ensures the stability of the splicing of the two adjacent protective covers 1, and prevents the waves, organisms, etc. on the seabed from disturbing the submarine pipeline protective cover. In addition, the protective cover 1 and the horizontal connecting component 2 are both made of fiber-reinforced composite materials.

It is understood that the first connecting plate 41 and the second connecting plate 42 are integrally molded structural components. The preset angle between the first connecting plate 41 and the second connecting plate 42 can be designed according to actual needs, for example, the preset angle is designed to be 80 degrees, 90 degrees, 100 degrees, etc. Preferably, the preset angle is 90 degrees. Preferably, the semi-positioning protrusion 11 is a semicircular protrusion, and the second positioning groove 43 is a semicircular groove that adapts to the semicircular protrusion. It should be noted that the corner connecting component 4 is an integrally molded component, that is, the first connecting plate 41 and the second connecting plate 42 are integrally molded structural components.

It can be understood that the pipelines on the seabed are not all distributed along a straight line, and the pipelines in some parts will bend. At this time, it is necessary to use a corner connecting component 4 to achieve the coverage of the bent pipeline. Specifically, first, the two protective covers 1 are respectively covered on the straight section of the bent pipeline, and then the corner connecting component 4 is used to cover the bent section of the bent pipeline, and the first connecting plate 41 and the second connecting plate 42 are respectively fitted on the two protective covers 1 at a preset angle, and at the same time, the two semi-positioning protrusions 11 are correspondingly embedded in the two second positioning grooves 43, thereby ensuring the stability of the corner connecting component 4 connected to the protective cover 1 at the preset angle.

[0052] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the protective cover 1 is provided with a first flange 12 on both sides relative to each other, the first connecting plate 41 is provided with a third flange 411 on both sides relative to each other, and the second connecting plate 42 is provided with a fourth flange 421 on both sides relative to each other; it can be understood that the protective cover 1 is provided with the first flange 12 on both sides, and the first flange 12 is horizontally arranged; the first connecting plate 41 is provided with the third flange 411 on both sides relative to each other, and the third flange 411 is horizontally arranged.

Multiple second pressing blocks 32 can be pressed against the first flange 12 and / or the second flange 22, and multiple third pressing blocks 33 can be pressed against the first flange 12 and / or the third flange 411.

[0055] Specifically, after the corner connecting component 4 is covered on the bent pipeline on the seabed, the second pressing block 32 is pressed against the first flange 12 and / or the third flange 411, and the third pressing block 33 is pressed against the first flange 12 and / or the fourth flange 421, thereby completing the covering work of the bent submarine pipeline and further improving the convenience of installation of the submarine pipeline protective cover.

[0056] In one embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, the first connecting plate 41 and / or the second connecting plate 42 are further provided with a third lifting eye hole 44. It is understood that the third lifting eye hole 44 is for cables to pass through, so that the corner connecting component 4 can be lifted to the seabed using a vessel equipped with cables, further improving the convenience of the submarine pipeline protection cover.

[0057] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, another embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for manufacturing the above-mentioned submarine pipeline protective cover, comprising:

[0058] S100. Prepare a mold 5 having a mold cavity 51 and a glue injection channel 52 connected to the mold cavity 51, wherein the mold cavity 51 is adapted to the protective cover 1 or the horizontal connecting part 2; it can be understood that the mold cavity 51 is a structural part with an opening facing upward, and the mold cavity 51 is used to manufacture the protective cover 1 or the horizontal connecting part 2.

[0059] S200, attaching a release cloth 53 to the inner wall of the mold cavity 51, and attaching a vacuum bag 54 to the release cloth 53; it can be understood that the vacuum bag 54 is located between the release cloth 53 and the inner wall of the mold cavity 51, and the vacuum bag 54 is in a flat state.

[0060] S300, laying a lower layer of fiber cloth 55 in the mold cavity 51, laying a plastic core material 56 on the surface of the lower layer of fiber cloth 55, and laying an upper layer of fiber cloth 57 on the surface of the plastic core material 56 away from the lower layer of fiber cloth 55; it can be understood that the lower layer of fiber cloth 55 and the upper layer of fiber cloth 57 can be made of multiple fiber cloths bonded together, and the number of fiber cloth layers in the lower layer of fiber cloth 55 and the upper layer of fiber cloth 57 can be designed according to actual needs, for example, 20 layers, 30 layers and 40 layers are designed, etc., and the plastic core material 56 is located between the lower layer of fiber cloth 55 and the upper layer of fiber cloth 57.

[0061] S400, injecting preset glue into the mold cavity 51 through the glue injection channel 52, so that the preset glue infiltrates the lower fiber cloth 55, the plastic core material 56 and the upper fiber cloth 57; it can be understood that the preset glue can have the technical effect of bonding the lower fiber cloth 55, the plastic core material 56 and the upper fiber cloth 57 together.

[0062] S500, curing the lower fiber cloth 55, the plastic core material 56 and the upper fiber cloth 57 in the mold cavity 51 under a preset pressure, and forming the protective cover 1 or the horizontal connecting component 2 after curing. It can be understood that the mold 5 can be placed in a vacuum chamber for pressure maintenance, and after the preset pressure maintenance time, the lower fiber cloth 55, the plastic core material 56 and the upper fiber cloth 57 will automatically cure. When the mold cavity 51 is adapted to the protective cover 1, the lower fiber cloth 55, the plastic core material 56 and the upper fiber cloth 57 will be cured to form the protective cover 1; when the mold cavity 51 is adapted to the horizontal connecting component 2, the lower fiber cloth 55, the plastic core material 56 and the upper fiber cloth 57 will be cured to form the horizontal connecting component 2.

[0063] S600: After the vacuum bag 54 is inflated with gas, the protective cover 1 or the horizontal connecting component 2 is removed from the mold cavity 51. As will be appreciated, after the vacuum bag 54 is inflated with gas, the vacuum bag 54 expands and drives the protective cover 1 or the horizontal connecting component 2 out of the mold, allowing the molded protective cover 1 or the horizontal connecting component 2 to be removed from the mold cavity 51. Similarly, this manufacturing method can also be used to manufacture corner connecting components 4.
