Sometimes these squeal when going through pipes.
What is PIGs?
This is the snow shoe of the foundation types.
What is mud mat?
Similar to a living tree, these smaller pipes tie into the central header.
What is branch?
This software program is used for header analysis.
What is AutoPIPE?
All manifold frames start out as these raw materials.
What is I-beams and pipe?
The subsea manifolds group sits on this floor of the OHQ building.
What is 16th floor?
The similarities between a soda can and this foundation type are uncanny.
What is suction pile?
This header arrangement allows round-trip pigging from top-side to manifold and back to top-side.
What is double (dual) header?
This software program is used for frame analysis.
What is STAAD or SACS?
For safety reasons, this is built around the manifold during pressure testing.
What is bunker?
Shamu the whale and mud mats have this in common.
What is the splash zone?
This visual cue on the side of a suction pile is a good indicator for where the mudline is.
What is paint or uncoated area?
Sometimes this mechanism/structure is needed when round-trip pigging is not possible.
What is pig launcher (PLR)?
This stress type is used for piping pressure calculations.
What is hoop or longitudinal stress?
Similar to toilets, this operation is performed until the manifold reaches a desired cleanliness.
What is flushing?
What is 1/4 inch?
These features on a mudmat resist lateral motion.
What is skirts?
This diameter is the cut-off that distinguishes between large bore piping and small bore tubing.
What is 2 inch diameter?
This derating factor may need to be applied when performing fitting or piping analysis.
What is temperature or material factor?
EFAT is for testing this kind of equipment on the manifold.
What is removable or non-permanently installed equipment?
First subsea manifold produced by OneSubsea.
What is Shell Osprey?
This pile top feature remains open during the self-penetration stage of suction pile installation.
What is vent cap?
The heaviest manifold structure produced by OneSubsea had this header diameter.
What is 22 inches?
The large impactor in dropped object analysis has this impact energy.
What is 20 kJ?
Header piping is tested at this pressure.
What is 1.25x design pressure?
