The first “pipelines” were laid in China about 1000 B.C., while the first oil pipeline was built in Switzerland, 1860, it was above 10 km long and 2” in diameter

Stresses and Forces acting on the offshore pipelines
01/05/2023CE-6397 SAFE INSTALLATION OF OFFSHORE PIPELINES OVER DEPRESSIONS
4
External pressure During Installation and Operational condition It reaches ultimate stresses during installation This external pressure is caused due to wave
loads, current etc. Internal pressure Developed during operation conditions Pipe is exposed to same pressure in all
directions Axial and circumferential stresses are developed
uniformly.

Causes due to the size, length, and layout of the pipeline, roughness of pipe line and the terrain of the ocean floor.
Induces strain in pipeline that causes stresses at joint
Increase in length will be around 1.5 Inch with temperature difference 110 degrees which pipe line installed at ambient temperature

Longitudinal Compressive stresses
If the axial force increases (F1 < F2 < F3), there will be more deformation of the pipe.Deflection of the mid-span point and compressive stresses will increase and downward buckling of pipe may occur.

Drag force occurs on pipe line due to current, moving wave towards the pipe line.
Induces instability to the pipeline by moving the pipe line from original position
Lift the pipeline from its original position
Drag Force, inertia Force and lift force

Buckling due to external pressure

Due to axial force pipe can buckle downwards in a free span, sideways on the seabed or upwards for buried pipelines.
Vertical buckling of a pipeline is called upheaval buckling
For upheaval buckling to occur, the pipeline must first have an initial imperfection.

Hoop stress is greater than the allowable stress, the pipe may burst due to internal pressure.

Selection of pipe line diameter is the ability to carry fluids at the design flow rates, within the allowable pressure.
For Gas pipe line:
Where Q = cubic ft of gas per 24 h, ID = internal pipe diameter in inches, P1 = pisa at starting point, P2 = pisa at ending point, L = length of pipe line in miles.

The relationship between internal pressure(Pid) and the wall thickness(t) is given by:
MSP = maximum source pressure, which equals to well head pressure at the well pipeline interference.
