PARAMETRIC STUDY FOR DEEP WATER PIPELAYING

PARAMETERSTUDIE UEBER DAS VERLEGEN VON PIPELINES IN GROESSEREN MEERESTIEFEN

A rational procedure for the dimensioning of subsea pipelines is described. It consists of a computer program which determines pipe diameter and wall thickness for given quantities of flow rate, depth of water, bottom current velocity and towing capacity of the lay barge. In addition to these main parameters, steel quality, out-of-roundness of the pipe and characteristics of the concrete coating are also taken into account. A sample application of the design technique is given. The theoretical results are checked against model tests and full scale data.
