Stinger for J-Lay pipelaying system

Abstract

A system for laying a pipeline from a floating vessel onto the ocean floor in relatively deep ocean water which provides guidance, bend restricting, and stabilizing means for the pipe sections while the connection by welding processes are being done and for providing means to remove the guidance, bend restricting, and stabilizing means from the central area of the stinger when passing objects of a larger diameter than the pipeline.
