Pipeline Buckle Mitigation Buoyancy

Custom clamp-on buoyancy modules that control lateral buckling of subsea pipelines and relieve stress.

Description

Buckle mitigation modules are clamped onto subsea pipelines to control the formation of lateral buckles and relieve stress. They reduce lateral friction by lowering the weight of buckling sections and provide a protective shell. Each module is custom-designed for uplift, pipeline specification and deployment strategy.

Key features

  • DeepTec® syntactic foam inside a thick-walled polyethylene shell
  • Shell resists impact, wear and biofouling
  • Integral elastomeric clamp
  • Installation tools provided

Applications

Subsea pipelines in offshore oil and gas.
