Applications
SUBSEA PRODUCTION AND FLOWLINES
(Deep water) VVV
Vertical connection systems are generally used for deep water applications, as trawl fishing is not actual. The picture above shows a typical layout. Use the following products:
Connection of underwater pipe spools, skid mounted assemblies and flowline terminations
Advantages:
-
enables alignement and connection of mating ends by simple ROV operation, eliminating stabbing frames and any other special tool
-
quick and reliable connection
-
fully mechanical
-
very compact and robust
-
subsea retrievable
-
enables enhanced optimization of subsea production manifolds as well as tie-in skids such as PLEM's, PLET's, Riser Bases, In line Tees, Wyes etc.
Connection of small bore piping, flexible hoses etc.
Advantages:
-
overcomes limitations of hot stabs providing a high pressure - through conduit connection
-
handling by std working class ROV, no special tools
-
metal to metal seal arrangement, suitable for temporary as well as permanent use
