THERMAL INSULATION FOR PIPES IN A DRILL PIPE RISER, TUBULAR SEGMENT AND THERMAL INSULATION SYSTEM FOR JOINT COUPLINGS

摘要

A thermal insulation of pipes of a drill pipe riser, the novelty consisting basically in the fact that the thermal insulation comprises several layers around the pipe and between the first layer and the pipe, and between two adjacent layers, there are spaces where sea water penetrates. A thermal insulation system of joint couplings of pipes for a drill pipe riser comprising a tubular segment that circumferentially surrounds the region of the joint coupling and, so that between the tubular segment and the pipes is formed a space where sea water penetrates.
