ROV Installed Sub-Sea Flange Clamp

Clamp designed for ROV deployment and installation

Lower half of clamp is rotated into line by actuator – then bolts are inserted

Then ROV positions clamp around the flange before the bolts are tightened

ROV Installed Sub-Sea Flange Clamp

Outline of Problem:

10 inch nominal bore compact flange on a water injection system found to be leaking badly

Design Pressure was 197 bar (2860 psi)

Defect was believed to be substantial

Of an area equivalent to that of a 30mm diameter hole

Water Depth was approx. 500m (1600 ft)

Too deep for divers – clamp had to be flown, installed and injected by a ROV (Remote Operated Vehicle)

Specialty industrial service and product solutions provider, Furmanite supplies an ever increasing range of industries with maintenance tools and key engineering services such as leak sealing, hot tapping and line stopping.
