Disclosed are systems and methods for thermal management of subsea conduits. A jumper that carries oil and/or gas produced from a subsea well in a subsea production facility located on a seabed has a first end for connecting to a first subsea component and a second end for connecting to a second subsea component. The jumper includes a jumper segment that is sloped relative to the horizontal, such that gravity assists with drainage of fluid from the second end of the jumper independent from fluid pressure in the jumper. At least a portion of the jumper is uninsulated to allow exchange of heat with seawater surrounding the jumper as produced fluid travels through the jumper. The amount of insulation on the jumper can be varied such that heat transfer from the production fluids to seawater surrounding the jumper circuit is adjusted as desired.

A pre-insulated flexible hot water pipe comprising a flexible pipe core; a flexible insulator surrounding the flexible pipe core; and a coating surrounding the flexible insulator.

A foamed resin molded article (1) including: a foamed resin layer (30) comprising a first resin which is a copolymer including a rubber component, a vinyl cyanide monomer unit and an aromatic vinyl monomer unit, and a blowing agent; and a non-foamed resin layer (50) covering the foamed resin layer (30), wherein: the non-foamed resin layer (50) comprises a second resin which is a copolymer including a rubber component, a vinyl cyanide monomer unit, and an aromatic vinyl monomer unit; and the amount of the rubber component in the non-foamed resin layer (50), determined by pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (PGC/MS), is 1% by mass or more and 30% by mass or less, based on the total mass of the second resin.

A modular, aerogel-based vacuum insulated pipe section comprising an outer conduit; an inner conduit concentrically disposed within the outer conduit with aerogel insulation and a condensable gas being disposed in the insulation space between the concentric conduits. As a stand-alone pipe section, the insulation space is at a pressure within the range of from about 100 microns Hg to about 1000 microns Hg. However, in operation, when a cryogenic fluid is traversing the inner conduit, the condensable gas condenses and the pressure within the insulation space is further reduced to range of from about 1 microns Hg to about 5 microns Hg. The vacuum insulated pipe section further includes a coupling arrangement disposed on a first end of the inner conduit and a second end of the inner conduit, the coupling arrangement configured to engage or mate with a corresponding end of another modular vacuum insulated pipe section.

A conduit for transporting a fluid comprises a first collar, a second collar, and a bellows. The bellows comprises a corrugated inboard ply, a corrugated outboard ply, and an interstitial space, interposed between the corrugated inboard ply and the corrugated outboard ply. The conduit additionally comprises a second weld, hermetically coupling the corrugated inboard ply and a first outer collar portion, a third weld, hermetically coupling the corrugated outboard ply and a first inner collar portion, a fourth weld, hermetically coupling the corrugated inboard ply and a second outer collar portion, a fifth weld, hermetically coupling the corrugated outboard ply and a second inner collar portion, and a first sensor, communicatively coupled with the interstitial space.

The present invention provides an ultra-long thermally insulated pipeline, which includes a working steel pipe and an outer sleeve steel pipe sleeving the working steel pipe, where an annular vacuum cavity is formed between the working steel pipe and the outer sleeve steel pipe; two ends of the outer sleeve steel pipe are tightened; and the tightened parts of the outer sleeve steel pipe are sealed with an outer wall of the working steel pipe through a plurality of sealing rings. The ultra-long thermally insulated pipeline further includes a spiral ring supporting frame which is disposed outside the working steel pipe and is in contact with a wall of the working steel pipe. The spiral ring supporting frame is made of a phase change material The present invention further provides a forming method of an ultra-long thermally insulated pipeline.

Described herein is a process for producing insulated pipes including providing a media pipe and a film hose continuously formed from a film or a media pipe and a jacketing pipe, wherein the media pipe is arranged inside the film hose or the jacketing pipe and a slot is formed between the media pipe and the film hose or jacketing pipe, wherein an adhesion promoter is applied to the surface of the media pipe facing the film hose or the jacketing pipe, introducing a polyurethane system at least including an isocyanate component (a) including at least one isocyanate, a polyol component (b), and at least one catalyst into the slot before the adhesion promoter is fully cured, and foaming and curing the polyurethane system. Also described herein are insulated pipes obtainable or obtained by such a process.

Heat exchanger for quenching reaction gas comprising—a coolable double-wall tube including an inner tubular wall and an outer tubular wall, wherein said inner tubular wall is configured to convey said reaction gas to be quenched, and wherein a space defined by said inner tubular wall and said outer tubular wall is configured to convey a coolant; —a tubular connection member having a bifurcating longitudinal cross-section comprising an exterior wall section and an interior wall section defining an intermediate space filled with refractory filler material, wherein a converging end of said connection member is arranged to be in connection with an uncoolable reaction gas conveying pipe, wherein said exterior wall section is connected with said outer tubular wall of said coolable double-wall tube, wherein an axial gap is left between said interior wall section and said inner tubular wall of said coolable double-wall tube.

The heated pipeline comprises an inner pipe intended to convey a fluid, and an outer coating made of a thermal insulating material and covering the inner pipe. The outer coating comprises at least one duct delimited, in a transverse plane, by a closed outline entirely defined in the thermal insulating material, each duct housing a respective heating element.

The presently disclosed technology is directed toward the removal of plugs in a pipeline segment by installing one or more clamping devices onto a pipeline. The clamping device will have the ability to access the inside of the pipeline segment and inject media designed to dissolve the plug.
