Bharuch Eco Aqua Pipeline Repair, India
Cutting and Installation of a New Pipeline Section + Diffuser
In co-operation with IMPaC Offshore Engineering GmbH and under contract of ESSAR Construction India, a 30" water pipeline was repaired.
The Pipeline got damaged during installation from a pipe laying barge in heavy weather. Approx. 12 miles offshore.
At first the damaged pipe was cut under water with a rope saw. After that the cut pipe has been connected with a Plidco Pipeline Clamp.
The especial difficulties during the operation was the tide water of up to 10 metres height and the extreme water current. Because of the sediment there was no visibility under water.
After the successful repair the two pieces of the diffuser were flanged with the pipe.
