Description

Submarine pipelines can be divided into three types based on their laying status: pipelines laid flat on the seabed, pipelines without buried, and pipelines buried in shallow trenches. In addition, there is also a suspended span state caused by waves and currents erosion. The four laying states of submarine pipelines indicate that the seabed, as the foundation supporting the pipeline, must provide sufficient support to ensure the stability of the pipeline. This article studies the erosion span data of existing pipelines, evaluates and predicts the pipeline span state through theoretical calculation and analysis, and then uses numerical simulation calculation methods to predict the pipeline span depth, and compares and verifies it with measured data.
