Method of assembling and laying a conduit for conveying a fluid between an on-shore point of a coastal region and an advanced off-shore point

摘要

Method of assembling and laying at least one fluid conveying conduit between an on-shore point and an advanced off-shore point, including erecting, regularly on the bottom of the sea, partially emersed pillars, prefabricating conduit sections before or after erecting the pillars, mounting said sections between and at least partially supporting the same on the successive pillars and interconnecting these sections. Where there are at least three conduits, they may be provided in a bunch arrangement and suspended between the pillars. Where the conduits are partially immersed, they are provided with a rising branch at each end to be connected one to another above the level of the sea.
