Innovative Rotating Buoyancy Modules Create Safe Buckling Zones
Trelleborg’s offshore operation recently developed a new Rotating Buoyancy Module system for buckling mitigation for subsea pipelines. The advanced solution is engineered to roll on the seabed to reduce lateral friction and berm creation thereby creating repeatable and predictable pipeline behavior. Steven Bray, Oil and Gas Business Manager with Trelleborg’s offshore operation, states: “Doing business in today’s globalized markets requires a long-term approach with solutions that protect people, the environment and our customer’s investment. We are committed to improving the
