<p>A device, tool assembly and/or method for more accurately measuring or simulating geotechnical pipe-soil interaction on or in the seabed. The pipeline simulation device or tool assembly can be deployed in association with a seabed rig, such as a remotely operated seabed drilling rig. The pipeline simulation device includes a tool able to be at least partially inserted into a seabed, and a shaft attached to the tool and able to effect movement of the tool relative to the seabed. Preferably, the shaft is able to be held by a seabed rig and the seabed rig is able to effect movement of the tool relative to the seabed, simulating in situ geotechnical pipe-soil interaction on or in undisturbed seabed.</p> |
