Method and mobile cutting tool for cutting a subsea tubular structure
The invention relates to a mobile cutting tool (100) for cutting a subsea tubular structure (810). The mobile cutting tool (100) comprises: i) a tool body (110) configured for receiving the subsea tubular structure (810) in an enclosure (50) thereof; ii) an actuator (120) mounted on the tool body (110) at one side (S1 ) of the enclosure; iii) a non-rotatable cutting element (130) provided on the actuator (120), the actuator (120) with the cutting element (130) being configured for carrying out a translational cutting movement through the enclosure (50) including the subsea tubular structure (810), and iv) a reaction member (140) mounted at an opposite side (S2) of the enclosure (50) of the tool body (110) opposite to the cutting element (130) for applying a reaction force on the subsea tubular structure (810) during cutting. The invention further relates to a method for cutting a subsea tubular structure, wherein a non-rotating translation cutting movement is used for cutting. The invention results in a strongly reduced cutting time, which reduces operational costs tremendously.
