Abstract:
A pipe-in- pipe pipeline has a bulkhead that transfers thermal stress from an inner pipe to an outer pipe, wherein at least part of the bulkhead forms a conduit for a product traveling through the inner pipe. Most preferably, the pipeline is a cryogenic pipeline for transport of liquefied natural gas. Where desirable, insulating material may be disposed between the inner pipe and outer pipe, while spacers may maintain the distance between the pipes.
