a standard production pipe surrounded by a so-called carrier pipe.
The gap between the carrier and production pipes is filled with an
insulation material.
|
|
- Flowline: a pipe, laid on the seabed, which allows the
transportation of oil/gas production or injection of fluids. Its
length can vary from a few hundred meters to several kilometers.
|
|
- Jumper: a short section of pipe for the connection of two
subsea structures.
|
|
- Riser: a pipe or assembly of pipes used to transfer
produced fluids from the seabed to the surface facilities or to
transfer injection fluids, control fluids or lift gas from the
surface facilities and the seabed.
|
|
- Flowline end termination: a subsea structure which
connects rigid flowline and flexible riser.
