The document summarizes a case study of installing a reinforced thermoplastic pipe (RTP) inside an existing offshore steel flowline in East Malaysia to replace deteriorating sections. Key steps included:
1) Analyzing pipe sizing, material selection, pull forces, and detailed project planning. A 3.5" RTP was selected.
2) Preparing the line and platform, then pulling the RTP through using a synthetic rope over several days. Joints were spliced every 300 meters.
3) Inspecting the installed RTP found no issues. Hydrotesting proved a successful rehabilitation that was 67% cheaper than a new steel line and reduced environmental disturbance. Lessons learned focused on

"The Load Capacity of Driven Cast-In-Situ Piles Derived from Installation Par...Remedy Geotechnics Ltd
The document discusses a method for estimating the load capacity of driven cast in-situ (DCIS) piles based on installation parameters measured during pile driving. Modern piling rig instrumentation allows parameters like drive energy and advancement rate to be recorded. These parameters can be used to calculate the dynamic drive resistance and correlate it to soil properties like angle of friction. Pile capacity is then estimated using standard soil mechanics equations. The method is illustrated using data from a test pile installed at a site in London. The estimated capacity of 1980kN closely matched the 1947kN capacity observed during load testing, validating the approach. The ability to assess pile capacity in real time based on installation data provides benefits over traditional static analysis methods for DCIS piles
Subsea pipelines are the arteries of the offshore industry, and around the world more than 18,000km are in service. Part of almost every project, they often form a large component of project cost. This course will provide a complete and up-to-date overview of the area of Subsea Pipeline Engineering, taking delegates through the pre-design phase, design, construction, installation, operation and maintenance.
It will give a complete picture of the work of design engineers and pipeline construction companies, using actual case studies from around the world to highlight the topics discussed. While the course requires no previous experience, this is not a superficial overview. The lecturers bring to the course a long experience of industry projects, in many parts of the world and under varied conditions. The technology is far from being static, and the trainers will discuss new developments and ideas for the future.

The Blue Stream Pipeline inspection project involved cleaning and inspecting two parallel 24-inch natural gas pipelines running 380 km each across the Black Sea at depths of up to 2,150 meters. PII Pipeline Solutions developed custom inspection tools capable of operating at 250 bar pressure and inspecting pipe walls up to 32 mm thick to detect metal loss or deformation. Both pipelines were successfully inspected and the results provided to the pipeline operator without any tools becoming stuck.
This presentation will cover pipe support design, 3D modeling, Finite Element Analysis, special stress and thermal cases, along with the unique cases that brought on new pipe support designs.

Pilot Tube Guided Boring Solutions Meet Project ChallengesLaura Anderson
Pilot tube guided boring equips contractors with the ability to accurately tackle extended trenchless gravity flow pipeline installations of 4-48-in. diameter pipe and larger with the guided auger boring method, in soft ground up to rock geology within a minimal footprint. Guided auger boring has positively impacted the auger boring market by ensuring bore accuracy, expediting installations, facilitating longer lengths, and reducing casing diameters for project savings. Pilot tube rock drilling has achieved success in rock density up to 12,000 psi using cutting tools to establish an accurate course for subsequent upsizing tooling. This presentation will explain these methods along with relevant case studies illustrating guided boring solutions that resolved project challenges.
