Abstract: A process for lining a steel pipe for the subsea transport of fluids comprises machining of an annular cavity in an inner wall of the pipe to be lined. The cavity is set back longitudinally relative to an end of the pipe. The deposition by welding of a first resurfacing layer includes a corrosion-resistant metal alloy on the inside of the cavity. Surface machining of the first resurfacing layer is done to the internal diameter of the pipe. A liner made of corrosion-resistant steel alloy is introduced into the pipe. Deposition by welding includes at least one second resurfacing layer made of corrosion-resistant metal alloy on the inner wall of the pipe between the end of the liner in contact with the first machined resurfacing layer and the corresponding end of the pipe. Surface machining of the second resurfacing layer is done to the internal diameter of the pipe.

Abstract: An installation of bottom-to-surface connections of at least two undersea pipes (11-1, 11-2) resting on the sea bottom (10), and a rigid pipe (1-1, 1-2) constituted by a vertical riser having its bottom end (1a) fastened to a base (9-1, 9-2) at the sea bottom (10), and having its top end (1b) tensioned by an immersed float (4-1, 4-2); and a flexible connection pipe (2-1, 2-2) providing the connection between a common floating support (12) and the top end (1b) of the vertical riser via a junction device (3-1, 3-2; wherein two hybrid towers are connected together by at least one rigid separator bar (5) having a length not less than the diameter of the larger-diameter float.
