Connection System

Field-proven subsea tie-in infrastructure

EAB Engineering has participated and contributed in developing well-known tie-in systems for the subsea industry since the 1990s, covering pipe connection sizes ranging from 3 to 30 inches.

All this experience is built into our latest-generation connection system, which is a field-tested design showing proven success.

The tool spread includes

cleaning and inspection tool
seal replacement tool
stroking tool
tool basket.

How our connection system improves subsea operations

Single-bolt clamp connectors with a long track record
Vertical and horizontal applications
High alignment capacity, handling both positive and negative pitch in combination with yaw angles
Standard handles 5° misalignment in all directions; 15° misalignment application also available
No heavy or advanced tooling required; no hydraulics left behind
All tools carried and operated by ROV
Complete tie-In sequence performed by ROV-carried tools performed after the flowline or jumper is landed, with no assistant by crane

Same hub intervention tools used on inboard and outboard hubs
Clamp connector can be fixed to the inboard or outboard structure, according to need and preference
Clamp connector is removable and installable subsea
Facilitation of full insulation of the clamp connector area and the pipe sections running through the Inboard and outboard structures
Nominal sizes from 6- to 30-in spools
Easy operation and confirmation of sufficient alignment and successful connection

For decades, EAB Engineering has been developing subsea tie-in systems in a range of sizes to help our customers meet their offshore objectives.
