    摘要: A method of abandoning a pipeline during subsea pipelaying from a pipelay vessel includes suspending the pipe string from a tendon element of an abandonment string and engaging further tendon elements to an upper end of the abandonment string while lowering the pipe string to a handover depth. At the handover depth, tension is applied via a wire to the top of the pipe string at an acute angle to the launch axis. This deflects the pipe string from the launch axis into axial alignment with the wire to transfer the weight load of the pipe string to the wire, whereupon the abandonment string can be decoupled from the pipe string. Recovery of the pipeline from the seabed can be effected by a reverse process.

    摘要翻译: 在从海底管线船舶进行海底管道铺设期间放弃管道的方法包括:将管柱从放弃绳的腱元件悬挂下来,并将另外的腱元件接合到放弃柱的上端,同时将管柱降低到切换深度。 在切换深度处,通过导线将张力以与发射轴成锐角的角度施加到管柱的顶部。 这使得管柱从发射轴线偏转成与线轴对准以将管柱的重量载荷传递到线,于是放弃线可以与管柱分离。 从海底回收管道可以通过相反的过程来实现。
