For example, fluid transport pipes laid between an offshore oil field and floating production facilities consist of flexible pipes composed of a composite of metal and plastic, and the demand for them is increasing gradually. . Offshore oilfield production facilities include not only fluid transport pipes for transporting crude oil and natural gas, but also pressure water injection pipes,
Hydraulic pipes for controlling hydraulic equipment, power cables, communication cables, etc. are required, and these long bodies for underwater installation are suspended from the floating body that is a floating production facility and installed in the sea.

Fluid transport pipes transport large quantities of crude oil and natural gas at high temperatures and pressures, but these fluid transport pipes often have an outer diameter of 200 to 300 mm and a unit weight of about 100 to 200 kg / m. If a long underwater laid body such as a fluid transport pipe is suspended and laid in a lump, construction work and handling are not easy, and in particular, it is not possible to flexibly cope with maintenance, inspection, and expansion of each fluid transport pipe. .

For this reason, attempts have been made to hold the plurality of long underwater laid object bodies at a distance from each other. In this way, when setting the distance between each of the long underwater laid bodies, it is desirable to set the distance to be small in consideration of the balance between the tension and bending applied to these laid bodies. Spacers are used to set the intervals between the laid object bodies so that the laid object bodies do not entangle or collide with each other.

However, as shown in FIG. 1, when the floating body 1 on which the long underwater laying object 10 is suspended is rotated by pitching as shown by an arrow, it is restrained by the spacer means and the free movement in the axial direction is hindered. As shown by the dotted line, an excessive bending load is applied to the main body of the installed fabric around the restraining portion of the spacer means, and abnormal deformation occurs, and the main body of the installed fabric is damaged by repetition.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a long elongate underwater laid object body suspended from a floating body on the water surface and held at intervals from each other by a multi-stage spacer means. In the underwater laid object, the spacer means is provided with a plurality of clamp-shaped spacers arranged side by side so as to abut on each long underwater laid object body and abut on the adjacent long underwater laid object body. The present invention provides a long underwater laid article comprising a string-shaped connecting member connected to adjacent clamp-shaped spacers.

As described above, since the spacer means for setting the interval between the long underwater laid object bodies is composed of the clamp-like spacers gripped by the long underwater laid object body, these laid object bodies are directly contacted by this spacer. The adjacent clamp-shaped spacers are connected to each other by a flexible string-shaped connecting member, so that these adjacent clamp-shaped spacers are maintained at a constant interval. Can move freely with each other, so that even if the floating body is pitched due to tides and waves and the floating body is tilted, no excessive bending load is applied to the body of the laid object, and the body of the laid object can be damaged. Will not occur.

As described above, the intervals between the long underwater laid object bodies 16 are set by the clamp-shaped spacers 18 gripped by the laid object body 16, and in particular, these clamp-shaped spacers 18 Are only connected by a flexible string-like connecting member 20 which does not maintain a constant distance between them, so that the floating body 1 is pitched, and even if it rotates as shown in FIG. The clamp-like spacers 18 of the body follow and displace to allow different axial movements of each body 16 so that the spacer means 14 does not restrain the body 16 of the long underwater body, and thus the long underwater body. Since an excessive bending load is not applied to the laid object body 16, the long underwater laid object body 16 is not damaged. In addition, as shown in FIG. 2 (A), when the set interval of the installed article main body 16 is L and the interval of the spacer means 14 is P, the relationship between P and L is such that the installed article main body 16 contacts each other. It is preferable to set P / L <25 so as not to cause the problem.

According to the present invention, as described above, the spacer means hinders the free movement in the axial direction of each installation object body by the flexible string-like connecting member and the clamp-like spacer having the spacer function. Therefore, there is an advantage that the movement of the floating body does not cause damage to the laid object body because the distance between the floating bodies can be set without any damage.
