Abstract: A device comprises an assembly for attaching to and moving on the production line. The attachment and movement assembly comprises at least two clamps that can be actuated selectively to clamp the production line, the attachment and movement assembly comprising an active mechanism for moving the clamps longitudinally relative to each other. The attachment and movement assembly comprises a tilting mechanism for tilting the clamps relative to each other, between a position in which they are parallel to each other and a position in which they are tilted with respect to each other. The tilting mechanism comprises a flexion bar capable of switching from a straight configuration in the parallel position of the clamps to a curved configuration in the tilted position of the clamps.

Abstract: A method for assembling a rigid pipe intended to be placed in a body of water, the rigid pipe including a metallic inner tube, a thermally insulating insulation jacket formed from an assembly of insulating parts and an outer layer. The method includes the steps of providing the metallic inner tube, forming the insulation jacket, and forming the outer layer around the insulation jacket. The method includes a step for providing a plurality of helical insulating parts and a step of mounting the helical insulating parts around the inner tube in order to form the insulation jacket.

Abstract: A clamp comprises a plurality of pads; a belt for clamping the pads that is maneuverable between an unclamped configuration and a configuration clamping the pads against the production line; a clamping actuator for the clamp, mounted on a first point of the clamp, the clamping actuator having a grasping member for a second point of the clamp, the grasping member being movable between a deployed position and a retracted position moving the second point towards the first point. The spacing-apart mechanism is able to move the grasping member between a spaced-apart configuration of the second point in the deployed position of the grasping member and a grasping configuration in an intermediate position between the deployed position and the retracted position.

Abstract: The pipe includes at least one tubular sheath delimiting a passage for circulation of the abrasive material, at least one tensile armor layer externally positioned with respect to the tubular sheath, the armor layer including a plurality of filiform armor elements. It further includes a protective internal layer positioned inside the tubular sheath in the circulation passage, the protective internal layer including an elastomeric matrix and a longitudinal reinforcement assembly embedded in the matrix.

Abstract: A device includes an inspection support bearing at least one sensor capable of being positioned facing the production line; a catching and traveling assembly for catching onto and traveling along the production line. The catching and traveling assembly comprises at least one clamp that can be selectively actuated so that it grips onto the production line, the or each clamp delimiting a central passage. The catching and traveling assembly comprises an active mechanism for moving the clamp longitudinally. The or each clamp is capable of applying a nominal clamping pressure of between 2 bar and 90 bar to the production line.

Abstract: A cover including an elongate body, capable of being applied to be facing an outer surface of the pipe, and at least one longitudinal interaction element for interacting with the pipe, supported by the elongate body. The elongate body is reversibly deformable under the effect of its own weight, the elongate body having a length of more than 10 m. The cover treats solid build-ups within a fluid-transport pipe in a simple, straightforward and inexpensive manner.
