Techniques for implementing and/or operating a system that includes a flexible pipe, which is formed into a pipe coil, and a pipe heating apparatus. The pipe heating apparatus includes a bore device to be moved to a target position within the pipe bore of the flexible pipe to facilitate isolating a segment of the flexible pipe from a remainder of the flexible pipe, one or more heating conduits connected to the bore device such that the one or more heating conduits are disposed in an upstream region of the pipe bore behind the bore device, and one or more heat sources to be connected to the bore device via the one or more heating conduits to enable the one or more heating conduits to heat the segment of the flexible pipe to facilitate unwinding the segment of the flexible pipe from the pipe coil.
