Patent number: 11255474Abstract: A tubular joint comprising first and second tubular members, an annular sealing element positioned between the tubular members and a clamping device for clamping the tubular members to each other with an end face of the first tubular member in contact with an end face of the second tubular member. The sealing element comprises an annular metallic body. Two sealing surfaces on the metallic body are designed to mate with tapered sealing surfaces on the tubular members. A first spring-energized polymeric seal member is mounted to the metallic body and configured to be in sealing contact with a radially extending sealing surface on the first tubular member. A second spring-energized polymeric seal member is mounted to the metallic body and configured to be in sealing contact with a radially extending sealing surface on the second tubular member. Seal members are prestressed upon clamping of the tubular members to each other.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2016Date of Patent: February 22, 2022Assignee: VETCO GRAY SCANDINAVIA ASInventor: Odd Marius Rosvold

Patent number: 10569385Abstract: Methods and arrangements are provided for release of an ROV operable subsea clamp connector, the clamp connector comprising at least two clamp segments hinged to move pivotally, and a drive screw connecting the clamp segments by threaded engagement with trunnions arranged rotatable in the pivoting ends of the clamp segments, the threads of the drive screw and trunnions turned such that the trunnions travel along the drive screw in mutually opposite directions when the drive screw is turned. An axial bore in the drive screw is adapted for accommodation of a waterjet cutting tool having a sideways pointing nozzle in a forward end, the waterjet cutting tool rotatable inside the bore while feeding high-pressure water through the nozzle, towards the wall of the drive screw until the wall of the drive screw is cut through.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2015Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: VETCO GRAY SCANDINAVIA ASInventor: Odd Marius Rosvold

Patent number: 9360146Abstract: A pipe assembly comprising an outer pipe in surrounding relation about an inner pipe, wherein the inner pipe is suspended in free inner ends of legs extended in an annular space that is formed between the outer and inner pipes, the legs reaching radially towards the inner pipe from an inner periphery of the outer pipe. At least one of the legs carries in its inner end a support foot that is formed with a recess facing towards the inner pipe. The recess forms a tunnel that is defined through an outer periphery of the inner pipe and opposite tunnel walls that reach from the leg to the inner pipe.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2014Date of Patent: June 7, 2016Assignee: Vetco Gray Scandinavia ASInventor: Odd Marius Rosvold
