Abstract: Pressure-triggering buoys are constructed of prebuckled pipe segments and attached to an offshore structure or pipeline under construction. The attached buoys move with the structure or newly added pipe segment toward the sea bottom, easing the descent. As the structure or segment of pipeline reaches a predetermined depth, the buoy attached thereto collapses, causing the structure or segment of pipeline to be heavier. In the instance of a pipeline, this collapse, in turn, causes the adjacent upper segment of pipeline to move lower, causing the next buoy to collapse, and so on.
Abstract translation: 压力触发浮标由预先弯曲的管段构成,并连接到正在建造的海上结构或管道。 附着的浮标与结构或新添加的管段朝向海底移动,减轻了下降。 当管道的结构或段达到预定的深度时,附着在其上的浮标塌陷,导致管道的结构或部分更重。 在管道的情况下,这种倒塌又导致相邻的管道上段移动较低,导致下一个浮标倒塌等等。

Abstract: The present invention provides a pipeline connector which uses collected conical rings as a holding mechanism designed to penetrate a pipe surface as they are simultaneously flattened. Several rings are required to achieve the total required shear load transfer area. The penetrating rings preferably are separated by shorter, non-penetrating rings to increase the loading area, thus limiting the external pressure loading on the pipeline.
Abstract translation: 本发明提供了一种管道连接器,其使用收集的锥形环作为设计成在它们同时变平时穿过管表面的保持机构。 需要几个环来实现总需要的剪切载荷传递面积。 穿透环优选地由更短的非穿透环分开,以增加装载面积,从而限制管道上的外部压力负载。

Abstract: A stable offshore platform for surface or undersea work is provided by connecting a semisubmersible trailer unit with a workboat. Preferably, two columns of the trailer are joined by a beam member or truss, and this assembly is linked to the workboat via a truss-like trailer tongue with a ball swivel joint. When in transit, the semisubmersible unit is deballasted to a shallow draft condition and towed by the workboat.

Abstract: An offshore oil spill cleanup system is provided which includes a barge arranged downstream of an oil spill to split the flow of oil to either side of the barge, two booms, each arranged on opposite sides of the barge to catch the diverted oil, and stationary skimmers working in the sheltered area behind the barge and within the booms to remove oil from the boom area to the barge. Diversionary booms are arranged upstream of the barge and chase skimming systems are located downstream of the barge and are functionable to move independently of the barge and recover any oil getting past the booms attached to the barge.
