PIPELINE TERMINATION ARRANGEMENT

摘要

A pipeline termination arrangement (9) to be mounted to a pipeline end section (1) in order to support a pipeline hub (2) of the pipeline end section during and after a subsea connection of the pipeline hub to a spool piece hub fixed to a spool piece termination structure. The pipeline termination arrangement (9) comprises: • - a landing structure (10) for supporting the spool piece termination structure; • - a connection porch (20) fixed to the landing structure; and • - a support structure (30) which is fixed to the pipeline end section and provided with a guide frame (31). The guide frame (31) slidably supports the landing structure (10) so as to allow the landing structure (10) and the connection porch (20) to slide along the guide frame (31) from a first position, in which the connection porch (20) is located in front of and at a distance from the pipeline hub (2), to a second position, in which the connection porch (20) is in contact with the pipeline hub (2).
