OFFSHORE PIPELINES

OFFSHORE PIPELINES

OFFSHORE PIPELINES

(OP)
hi gents,
anyone know any good literature on design & construction of offshore pipelines?
One more question - does ASME B31.4 (code for pipes transporting Hydrocarbons ....& other liquids) apply to both onshore and offshore pipelines carrying crude oil?
In the specific project I am working on, the offshore piping carrying crude oil running on seabed terminates at an SPM (single point mooring) unit.

Any tips are appreciated.

Don't forget to check for external hydropressure causing collapse during installation if you are in deeper water.

Do you know of the Offshore Strure/Pipeline Forum that is on this website?
