Installation and Maintenance of Subsea Isolation Valves
Abstract Lord Cullen’s report on the Piper Alpha disaster does not recommend a mandatory requirement for all hydrocarbon pipelines to have subsea isolation valves(SSIVs). However, the requirement of SSIVs will be determined through a Formal Safety Audit. This paper briefly reviews the impact of the Cullen report on the pipeline system design and the requirement of SSIVs including preliminary proposals to dispose off the trapped hydrocarbon inventory. An overview of the SSIV system design identifies the cost effective approach without affecting the SSIV reliability. After identifying testing, inspection and maintenance requirements, the paper discusses their impact on the design. Finally, a conceptual design of a maintenance frame is presented which should help in reducing diving time during SSIV maintenance.
