  • SUBSEA EXPANSION JOINT
    Publication number: 20250223890
    Abstract: Expansion joints, jumper assemblies, and subsea connection systems for providing a linearly extendable connection between two or more subsea components. The expansion joint allows the jumper assembly to be selectively extended to provide a stroke length for connecting an end of the jumper assembly to a respective subsea component. Additionally, the expansion joint allows connections to be established over short distances where the length of the jumper does not provide suitable flexibility.
