Nearshore Pipeline Installation Methods.

Abstract

The primary purpose of the study is to provide the Naval Civil Engineering Laboratory with recommendations for existing or new construction methods which are: within present UCT/NMCB capabilities and are the most resource efficient, state-of-the-art methods which are practical for the UCT/NMCB but currently beyond their capabilities due to the team's lack of technological or equipment resources, and not state-of-the-art but which have potential for providing a more resource efficient method for use by the UCT/NMCB. Information for the study comes from: a thorough literature search and review, in-house expertise and evaluation, and communications with qualified experts in the fields of marine pipeline construction, with material vendors and manufacturers, and with engineering and construction consultants.
