Torsion in Flexible Pipes, Umbilicals and Cables Under Loadout to Installation Vessels

Operations where a flexible pipe, umbilical or cable is loaded out from an on-shore spool to the hold of an installation vessel can cause a build-up of torsion. In unfavourable cases, the torsion has been known to cause spiralling or various forms of damage to the tensile armour. This paper presents...
