Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de colonne souple sous tension par câbles propre à permettre le déploiement vertical d'une longueur de plusieurs milliers de mètres en milieu marin. Ce dispositif est conçu dans le but de récupérer vers la surface des matières gazeuses, liquides, visqueuses ou solides émanant des fonds marins et remontant d'elles mêmes, libérées par exemple d'un navire coulé ou d'un puits de forage mal obturé. 10 Pour les colonnes souples de grands diamètres, les longueurs ordinairement possibles sont fonction de la résistance à la déchirure des matériaux employés, et de la capacité de ceuxci à rester dans leur forme initiale quels que soient les éléments extérieurs (vents, courants, pressions, différences de température). The present invention relates to a flexible column device under tension suitable for cables allowing vertical deployment of a length of several thousand meters in the marine environment. This device is designed with the aim of recovering towards the surface gaseous, liquid, viscous or solid materials emanating from the seabed and rising by themselves, released for example from a sunken ship or from a poorly sealed drilling well. 10 For flexible columns with large diameters, the ordinarily possible lengths depend on the tear resistance of the materials used, and on their capacity to remain in their initial shape whatever the external elements (winds, currents, pressures, temperature differences).
En fait, quelles que soient les matières employées, le rapport Résistance/Poids limite très rapidement en position verticale la longueur possible. In fact, whatever the materials used, the Strength / Weight ratio very quickly limits the possible length in the vertical position.
Afin de conserver les caractéristiques initiales d'une colonne souple tout en permettant de très grandes longueurs, la présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de remédier 20 à ces problèmes (résistance et comportement des matériaux employés) par une combinaison de masse minimum et de tension contrôlée donnant une rigidité relative à l'ensemble, sans autre limite de longueur que la résistance des câbles utilisés. In order to maintain the initial characteristics of a flexible column while allowing very long lengths, the present invention relates to a device making it possible to remedy these problems (resistance and behavior of the materials used) by a combination of minimum mass and controlled tension. giving a relative rigidity to the assembly, with no other length limit than the resistance of the cables used.
La méthode employée pour le report des charges est de nature à autoriser une colonne 25 aussi longue que la résistance de ces câbles le permet. The method used for the transfer of loads is such as to allow a column 25 as long as the resistance of these cables allows.
L'invention propose, une colonne souple d'éléments de longueur fixe assemblés entre eux par des éléments rigides (chaises) et terminée par un cône (upe) permettant le captage à la source des matières à récupérer. L'ensemble est maintenu en tension depuis un point 30 situé à (ou sous) la surface par des câbles traversant les chaises. The invention proposes a flexible column of elements of fixed length assembled together by rigid elements (chairs) and terminated by a cone (upe) allowing the collection at the source of the materials to be recovered. The assembly is kept in tension from a point 30 located at (or below) the surface by cables passing through the chairs.
Des modes d'exécution de l'invention seront décrits ci-après, à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, avec référence aux dessins annexés. Embodiments of the invention will be described below, by way of non-limiting examples, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
1 Ce dispositif est constitué: a) d'une colonne de matière fine et souple issue de l'industrie des plastiques et des dérivés pétroliers (exemple film polyéthylène) en forme de tube (B) d'un diamètre de un mètre et par tronçons de 200 mètres (Bl à Bn). 1 This device consists of: a) a column of fine and flexible material from the plastics and petroleum derivatives industry (example polyethylene film) in the form of a tube (B) with a diameter of one meter and in sections 200 meters (Bl to Bn).
Sur l'ensemble de leur longueur, ces tronçons (Bi à Bn) sont quadrillés d'une armature de fibres de nylon noyées dans la matière et disposés de manière à augmenter la résistance dans le sens de la longueur. Over their entire length, these sections (Bi to Bn) are gridded with a reinforcement of nylon fibers embedded in the material and arranged so as to increase the resistance in the direction of the length.
Les extrémités de ces tronçons souples sont d'une épaisseur renforcée sur une longueur de 1,5 mètre (M) de manière à supporter un serrage par collier (E) sans subir de détérioration. The ends of these flexible sections are of reinforced thickness over a length of 1.5 meters (M) so as to withstand clamping by a collar (E) without being damaged.
Ces tronçons souples de colonne (Bl à Bn) comportent en leur milieu et à cinquante mètres 15 de part et d'autre, trois anneaux (RI, R2, R3) semi rigides collés ou inclus dans la matière du film, sans toutefois présenter d'aspérités sur la face intérieure de ladite colonne. These flexible column sections (B1 to Bn) have in their middle and fifty meters 15 on either side, three semi-rigid rings (RI, R2, R3) glued or included in the film material, without however presenting roughness on the inner face of said column.
Dans le cas de la récupération de produits visqueux, chacun de ces tronçons souples de 200 mètres (BI à Bn) comportent, sur 20 mètres de leur partie basse et sur toute la surface 20 (P), des trous circulaires de 5 millimètres de diamètre et pour une densité de 500 trous au m2. In the case of the recovery of viscous products, each of these flexible sections of 200 meters (BI to Bn) comprise, over 20 meters of their lower part and over the entire surface 20 (P), circular holes of 5 millimeters in diameter and for a density of 500 holes per m2.
Dans le cas de produits gazeux, les films souples ne sont pas perforés. In the case of gaseous products, the flexible films are not perforated.
b) d'éléments de matière dure et de haute densité (par exemple de PVC) dénommées " chaises " (C) et comportant trois parties: - Un tube rigide (A) en PVC d'une longueur de 4 mètres et d'un diamètre de 1 mètre, muni d'encoches à ses deux extrémités pour assurer le serrage par collier des tronçons 30 souples (B), collé (soudure chimique) en son milieu à l'intérieur d'un bloc de (h) 2m x 1,4m x 1,4m. b) elements of hard and high density material (for example PVC) called "chairs" (C) and comprising three parts: - A rigid PVC tube (A) with a length of 4 meters and a diameter of 1 meter, provided with notches at its two ends to ensure the clamping of flexible sections 30 (B), glued (chemical welding) in the middle inside a block of (h) 2m x 1 , 4m x 1.4m.
- un bloc de PVC (U) de h: 2m x 1,4m x 1,4m fabriqué en deux demi coques (Ul, U2) de matière pleine. - a block of PVC (U) of h: 2m x 1.4m x 1.4m made in two half shells (Ul, U2) of solid material.
En chacun de ses angles, ce bloc (U) est perforé dans sa hauteur d'un canal d'un diamètre légèrement supérieur au diamètre des câbles de tension (Tl à T4), et équipé sur chaque arrête d'un système de serrage autobloquant (X). At each of its angles, this block (U) is perforated in its height with a channel with a diameter slightly greater than the diameter of the tension cables (Tl to T4), and equipped on each edge with a self-locking clamping system (X).
1 Ce bloc une fois assemblé autour du tube rigide est ceinturé d'une coque de mousse syntactique (W). 1 This block, once assembled around the rigid tube, is surrounded by a shell of syntactic foam (W).
- une coque de mousse syntactique (W) imbriquée sur l'extérieur du bloc de PVC (U) de manière à augmenter l'indice de flottabilité de la chaise. - a shell of syntactic foam (W) nested on the outside of the PVC block (U) so as to increase the buoyancy index of the chair.
Ces chaises (C) reçoivent sur leurs parties tubulaires rigides hautes et basses les tronçons souples enfilés (B) et serrés par collier (E). These chairs (C) receive on their high and low rigid tubular parts the flexible threaded sections (B) and tightened by collar (E).
c) de quatre câbles (par exemple en acier ou nylon) (Tl à T4) réglés et serrés à l'intérieur de chacune de ces chaises (C) et reportant ainsi la charge globale jusqu'en haut de la colonne, sans que les partie souples (B) y participent Ces câbles sont calculés pour supporter en milieu marin une charge globale représentant la 15 masse de la colonne ainsi constituée. c) four cables (for example steel or nylon) (Tl to T4) adjusted and tightened inside each of these chairs (C) and thus transferring the overall load to the top of the column, without the flexible part (B) participate. These cables are calculated to support an overall load in the marine environment representing the mass of the column thus formed.
Ces câbles sont munis d'une ancre (Z) sertie dans le corps de la première chaise (C) (chaise basse), et remontent au travers de toutes les autres jusqu'à un système général de tension, situé soit en surface (navire, structure sur bouée, plate forme offshore), soit sur une 20 station sous marine. These cables are provided with an anchor (Z) set in the body of the first chair (C) (low chair), and go up through all the others to a general tension system, located either on the surface (ship , structure on buoy, offshore platform), or on an underwater station.
Le système de serrage des câbles sur le corps cubique de chaque chaise (C) est constitué de deux principes: un principe de serrage par écrou ou clé (S) et un principe autobloquant (X). The cable tightening system on the cubic body of each chair (C) is made up of two principles: a principle of tightening by nut or key (S) and a self-locking principle (X).
Principe de serrage par écrou ou clé (S) Les deux demi coques en PVC (UI et U2) sont perforées sur toute leur hauteur, dans chaque angle, d'un canal de diamètre suffisant pour laisser coulisser un câble (Tl, T2, T3 30 ou T4). Principle of tightening by nut or key (S) The two PVC half shells (UI and U2) are perforated over their entire height, in each angle, with a channel of sufficient diameter to allow a cable to slide (Tl, T2, T3 30 or T4).
Sur chaque arrête et situées à mi hauteur du corps cubique de la chaise, des entailles équipées de dispositifs de serrage des câbles par écrou sont disposées de manière à permettre le réglage des longueurs entre chaises. On each edge and located halfway up the cubic body of the chair, notches equipped with cable tightening devices by nut are arranged so as to allow the lengths between chairs to be adjusted.
Ces longueurs correspondent aux tronçons souples décrits précédemment (B). These lengths correspond to the flexible sections described above (B).
Le réglage est effectué en mer lors de la mise en place, tronçon après tronçon sur la longueur totale nécessaire à l'opération de récupération. The adjustment is made at sea during installation, section after section over the total length necessary for the recovery operation.
1 Principe autobloquant (X) Le canal en sa partie inférieure est terminé sur trente centimètres par une forme conique permettant d'introduire un cône d'acier en deux parties et dont les faces intérieures concaves sont rainurées. 1 Self-locking principle (X) The channel in its lower part is finished on thirty centimeters by a conical shape allowing to introduce a steel cone in two parts and whose internal concave faces are grooved.
Ce cône venant se loger dans la partie conique du canal, de part et d'autre du câble, pince d'autant plus celui-ci qu'il tend à glisser vers le haut en cas de serrage insuffisant. This cone which is housed in the conical part of the channel, on either side of the cable, clamps all the more the latter as it tends to slide upwards in the event of insufficient tightening.
Des bouchons perforés en leur centre et non fermés, introduits par pincement et laissant coulisser les câbles, viennent obturer à la suite de la mâchoire cette partie conique du 10 canal. Plugs perforated in their center and not closed, introduced by pinching and allowing the cables to slide, close this conical part of the channel after the jaw.
d) d'une " jupe " (J) en forme d'entonnoir, constituée du même film souple renforcé de nylon, située à la base de la colonne et d'un diamètre de 15 mètres à sa base et de 1 mètre à son sommet, terminée en partie haute par un tronçon tubulaire souple (1) d'un diamètre de 15 1 mètre et d'une longueur de 1 mètre enfilé sur le tube rigide (A) bas de la première chaise (C). d) a funnel-shaped "skirt" (J) made of the same flexible film reinforced with nylon, located at the base of the column and with a diameter of 15 meters at its base and 1 meter at its top, terminated in the upper part by a flexible tubular section (1) with a diameter of 15 meters and a length of 1 meter threaded on the rigid tube (A) bottom of the first chair (C).
Cette jupe est cerclée de quatre armatures circulaires (01 à 04) en matière indéformable pleine capable de maintenir la forme du cône et reliées entre elles par des filins (F) ancrés 20 dans la partie basse du bloc (A) de la première chaise, de manière à permettre un déploiement de la jupe en reportant son poids sur ladite chaise. This skirt is encircled by four circular frames (01 to 04) of solid non-deformable material capable of maintaining the shape of the cone and connected together by ropes (F) anchored 20 in the lower part of the block (A) of the first chair, so as to allow deployment of the skirt by transferring its weight to said chair.
Ces armatures (01 à 04) peuvent être constituées de la même matière et fabriquées solidairement avec la jupe (J), ou bien être rajoutées sur l'extérieur de celle-ci. 25 Dans le cas de la récupération de matières visqueuses ou solides, la partie souple de la jupe est perforée de trous (P') d'un diamètre de 5 millimètres sur toute sa circonférence et selon de larges bandes horizontales entre les cerclages (01 à 04), selon une densité de 500 trous par m2. These reinforcements (01 to 04) can be made of the same material and made integrally with the skirt (J), or else be added to the outside of the latter. 25 In the case of the recovery of viscous or solid materials, the flexible part of the skirt is perforated with holes (P ') with a diameter of 5 millimeters over its entire circumference and along wide horizontal bands between the straps (01 to 04), according to a density of 500 holes per m2.
Dans le cas de récupération de matières gazeuses ou liquides, aucun percement de la partie souple ne sera effectué. In the case of recovery of gaseous or liquid materials, no drilling of the flexible part will be carried out.
La manceuvre de descente en plongée se fera alors " jupe repliée ", armatures (01 à 04) en position verticale. The plunge descent operation will then be "folded skirt", frames (01 to 04) in a vertical position.
L'armature de plus grand diamètre (04), située à la base du dispositif, est équipée de systèmes d'ancrage (Z) soit pour des ancres fixes, soit pour recevoir des câbles horizontaux de guidage ancrés au fond. The larger diameter frame (04), located at the base of the device, is fitted with anchoring systems (Z) either for fixed anchors or to receive horizontal guide cables anchored to the bottom.
1 L'ensemble constitue ainsi une colonne tendue et flexible dont les longueurs souples ne participent pas au report de charge. 1 The assembly thus constitutes a taut and flexible column whose flexible lengths do not participate in the load transfer.
Seules les chaises (C) , bloquées en positions fixes et traversées par les câbles de tension (Tl à T4), transmettent à ces câbles la charge unique de plus ou moins 200 mètres de colonne souple (B). Only the chairs (C), locked in fixed positions and crossed by the tension cables (Tl to T4), transmit to these cables the single load of more or less 200 meters of flexible column (B).
L'ensemble immergé est donc supporté tous les 200 mètres par des éléments rigides (C) reportant tous les efforts sur les câbles tendus (Tl à T4) depuis l'installation de surface ou sous marine. The submerged assembly is therefore supported every 200 meters by rigid elements (C) transferring all the forces on the stretched cables (Tl to T4) from the surface or underwater installation.
La colonne est en partie basse terminée par une jupe (J) dont la partie large est proche de la source à capter, de manière à canaliser jusqu'à ladite installation la récupération des matières plus légères que l'eau. The column is in the lower part terminated by a skirt (J) the wide part of which is close to the source to be captured, so as to channel the recovery of materials lighter than water up to said installation.
Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention: * La figure 1 montre le principe de la colonne dans son ensemble sans définir le choix de la structure porteuse, qui peut selon les cas être une structure sous marine stable, un bâtiment de surface ou encore un système autonome de surface comprenant une 20 structure flottante et une zone de récupération par barrage flottant * La figure 2 montre la partie basse de la colonne ou jupe (J). The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention: * Figure 1 shows the principle of the column as a whole without defining the choice of the supporting structure, which may, depending on the case, be a stable underwater structure, a surface vessel or even a system autonomous surface comprising a floating structure and a recovery zone by floating dam * Figure 2 shows the lower part of the column or skirt (J).
* La figure 3 montre le détail d'une chaise (C), le passage et le blocage des câbles (Tl à 25 T4), la jonction des parties souples de la colonne (B) sur les chaises (C). * Figure 3 shows the detail of a chair (C), the passage and blocking of cables (Tl to 25 T4), the junction of the flexible parts of the column (B) on the chairs (C).
ò La figure 4 montre la chaise basse et sa jonction avec la jupe (J), une des deux demi coques (Ul ou U2) formant le bloc de chaise une fois collées sur le tube rigide (A), les canaux de passage des câbles (D), le manteau de mousse syntactique (W). 30 ò Figure 4 shows the low chair and its junction with the skirt (J), one of the two half shells (Ul or U2) forming the chair block once glued to the rigid tube (A), the cable passage channels (D), the mantle of syntactic foam (W). 30
