STUDY OF THE BOTTOM PULL CONSTRUCTION PROCESS FOR THE CHIRA TREATMENT PLANT DISCHARGE PIPELINE (PERU)
Marine pipelines
- Start Date / End Date: 2013/2014
- Scope: Detailed engineering
- Description:
Design of the system via off-bottom pull with the support of chains
The pipeline characteristics are as follows:
-
. Discharge flow rate: 11.3 m3/s
-
. Inside diameter: 2,400 mm
-
. Maximum depth: 60 m
-
. Length: 3,627 m
Various jobs were done relating to the definition of the bottom pull construction process:
-
. A current study (magnitude and direction)
-
-
. The forces generated by the waves and the currents were estimated
-
. The design of three types of floaters: flotation, regulation and pull
-
. Modelling with 3D Structural Anaysis Software
-
. The calculation and construction layout of the chains
-
. The design of the tugging system: end pieces and cables, pulleys and their securing
-
. The design of a complementary fixing system with anchors and cables
