    摘要: Apparatus for and a method of recovering a submerged pipeline is provided with such apparatus and method being particularly useful with pipelines laid on the bottom of a deep body of water. The apparatus includes support means haivng clamping means thereon for clamping the pipeline and lifting it from its bed, cutter means mounted on the support means for cutting the clamped pipeline to provide a pipeline end, and a recovery header removably mounted to the support. In operation, drive means move the header from its rest position into the clamped and cut pipeline end in an inserted state and retaining means on the support means retain the header in its inserted position. The header and pipeline section are ready for removal. A pulling and guiding flexible cable system from a vessel or barge associated with the apparatus can be used to position the apparatus under water and to move the header with the retained pipeline from the body of water to the vessel. The invention greatly facilitates the recovery of pipeline from a deep sea bottom and can dispense with use of divers normally required heretofore.

    摘要: Method and apparatus for laying an underwater pipe to straddle an already laid pipe, comprising fastening to the pipe to be laid, at appropriate distances apart, a set of trestles the heights of which are gradually increasing and decreasing consistent with the bend to be imparted to the pipe to be laid in order to have it positioned in the correct straddling relationship relative to the already laid pipe. Each trestle is connected to the pipe to be laid by flexible means which allow the trestle to move vertically, longitudinally and traversely relative to the pipe and to be suspended below and separate from the pipe as the pipe and trestle descend to the sea bed for proper positioning of the trestle substantially independent of the pipe.

    摘要: An articulated stand apparatus for laying or recovering pipeline in or from a trench dug in the ground wherein the apparatus is hinged to the side of a tracked means or side boom and includes lifting tackle with a hook.The apparatus includes two rigid frames. One frame is hinged at its lower end to the tracked means in such a way that it can be rotated in a plane transverse to the tracked means. The second frame has extensible telescopic elements at its lower end for resting on the ground. The upper ends of the frames are hinged to each other and are disposed in a reversed V with the lifting tackle and hook supported at the vertex of the frames.Extending from the upper end of the second frame is a pair of arms whose ends are hinged to pistons of hydraulic cylinders, which, in turn, are hinged to the center line of the first frame. In operation, the second frame can be hydraulically rotated about its hinged connection to the first frame so that the second frame can move over a trench and lay its extensible elements on the ground of the trench opposite to the tracked means.In a preferred embodiment, the telescopic elements extending from the lower end of the second frame are connected to a motorized tracked carriage.

    摘要: A pipeline closing head, for use in testing a pipeline after it has been laid on a submerged bed by subjecting the pipeline temporarily to internal pressure through the use of filling and emptying balls, is constituted by a hollow cylindrical body having a crowned closing element at one end and containing, at its other end, an air tight chamber housing the filling and emptying balls. Ducts and control valves through which fluid is supplied to said chamber to activate the filling and emptying balls and supply fluid pressure to the interior of the pipeline are housed within the cylindrical body so that they do not overhang the closing head, which may slide along a conventional ramp for the pipeline.
