: Short lines that transport hydrocarbons from individual subsea wellheads to a central collection point or platform.
Designing for the deep-sea environment requires addressing extreme physical and environmental pressures: Offshore Pipelines
: Connect different components of a subsea production system, such as wellheads to manifolds or platforms. Engineering and Design Challenges : Short lines that transport hydrocarbons from individual
: Large-diameter arteries that move processed fluids from offshore facilities to shore or other major hubs. Offshore Pipelines
Offshore pipelines are generally categorized by their role in the production and transport cycle:
