  • the pipe is generally formed of a set of concentric and superimposed layers. It is considered as "unbound" in the sense of the present invention since at least one of the layers of the pipe is able to move longitudinally relative to the adjacent layers during bending of the pipe.
  • an unbonded pipe is a pipe devoid of binding materials connecting layers forming the pipe.
  • the pipe is generally disposed across a body of water, between a bottom assembly for collecting the fluid operated in the bottom of the body of water and a set of floating or stationary surface for collecting and distributing the fluid.
