A fluid conduit interlock comprises at least one retention member for engaging a fluid conduit, the or each retention member configured to be movable between a retention position for retaining the fluid conduit and a release position for releasing the fluid conduit, a valve member configured to be movable between a valve open position for opening a hollow bore and a valve closed position for closing the hollow bore, and an interlock mechanism configured to operably link the movement of the or each retention member and the movement of the valve member so that the or each retention member in the release position locks the valve member in the valve closed position and so that the valve member in the valve open position locks the or each retention member in the retention position.

A system (1) for providing a sterile fluid connection between a first fluid channel (2) and a second fluid channel (3), comprising a first coupling element (5) arranged at an orifice (4) of the first fluid channel (2) and a second coupling element (6) arranged at an orifice (4) of the second fluid channel (3), wherein the first coupling element (5) and the second coupling element (6) each comprise a foil (7) that may be peeled off of the orifice (4), wherein the system (1) comprises a connecting element (8) separated from the first coupling element (5) and the second coupling element (6), which is configured to accommodate the first coupling element (5) and the second coupling element (6) in the region of the orifices (4) and to press the orifices (4) of the fluid channels (2, 3), which are closed by the foils (7), against one another, wherein the connecting element (8) has a recess (9) arranged essentially in the plane of the orifices (4) of the fluid channels (2, 3) for passing the foils (7) through the connecting element (8).

Apparatus for hydrostatic testing of items having a flanged opening, such as flanged pipe sections, which apparatus contains a actuator having a actuator shaft attached to a blind flange, which actuator can be powered from a power source on a remotely operated vehicle, which items include those items located on land as well as subsea. Also provided is a remotely operated vehicle having a power source such as a hydraulic system that is used to operate the actuator on the hydrostatic testing apparatus.

A sealing system for establishing real time sealing between two flange members is provided. The sealing system includes a seal assembly disposed between the flange members. The seal assembly includes an o-ring seal component held between an outer seal component and an inner seal component. A clamp body including a first clamp arm and a second clamp arm receive the flange members and the seal assembly positioned between the flange members. A coupling device of the sealing system is used to apply torque to clamp arms to draw them each other resulting biasing the flange member toward each other to establish sealing. Each of the clamp arms includes at least one window opening to expose a portion of outer seal component that includes an indicator configured for displaying an identification feature of the o-ring seal component of the sealing assembly.

A connector and tubing combination includes a tubing segment with an end piece, such as a tubing flange. The tubing flange can be secured within the connector by an outer sleeve and an inner sleeve of the connector. Both of the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve are located outside of the tubing flange and the tubing segment. In addition, the inner sleeve, outer sleeve and the tubing flange are mechanically connected.

The present invention relates to a subsea fluid flow tubular connection system with an inboard hub in fluid connection with piping of a sub sea hydrocarbon exploration or production system and an outboard hub. The sub sea fluid flow tubular connection system comprise a tubular saver sub with an inboard hub connecting portion in sealing contact with the inboard hub at a first end and an outboard hub connecting portion in sealing contact with the outboard hub at a second end. A method of installing and exchanging such a tubular saver sub is also disclosed.

The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a detachable anti-vibration sealing protection device for a pipe flange. The protection device includes a casing, wherein left and right end surfaces of the casing have through holes for the pipeline to pass through, and the casing has an accommodation cavity for placing the flange; a first shock absorption assembly for radial shock absorption of the flange; and a second shock absorption assembly which is installed in a one-to-one correspondence with the flange and is configured for axial shock absorption of the corresponding flange. The first shock absorption assembly and the second shock absorption assembly are installed in the accommodation cavity.

In order to make it possible to ensure the axis alignment performance while reducing the processing cost, and to make a coupling structure compact to perform the coupling work and the detaching work of pipe members without difficulty even in a narrow work space, the coupling structure according to the invention includes a pipe coupling that couples a pair of pipe members each including a flange at an end portion in a state where the flanges of the pipe members face each other, an annular gasket interposed between the flanges of the pair of pipe members, and recesses formed individually in facing surfaces of the flanges facing each other, in which the annular gasket fitted into the respective recesses makes pipe axes of the pipe members and the annular gasket coincide with each other.

A radio-frequency identification (RFID) connector, including a connector, including at least one component, and a RFID assembly connected to the connector, the RFID assembly including a RFID tag, and at least one contact arranged on the at least one component and electrically connected to the RFID tag, wherein in an unlocked state of the RFID connector, the RFID tag indicates an open state of the RFID assembly, and in a locked state of the RFID connector, the RFID tag indicates a closed state of the RFID assembly.
