Abstract: A method for testing a tunnel fire suppression system in the form of a water deluge system having a wet side and a dry side separated by a valve, includes the step of providing a nozzle arrangement comprising a plurality of nozzles, with each nozzle disposed in or coupled to an outlet of the water deluge system. The nozzle arrangement comprises, is coupled to or operatively associated with a sensor arrangement configured to measure the pressure of air at each of the plurality of outlets of the water deluge system and output one or more output signals indicative of the pressure of the air at the one or more outlets. The method includes providing a supply of pressurised air through the water deluge system using a blower coupled to the water deluge system.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for collecting fluid during flushing of a subsea fluid conduit such as a subsea umbilical. The apparatus comprises a vessel configured to receive fluid from the subsea fluid conduit, and a first connector for fluidly coupling the vessel to the subsea flowline. In one aspect, the apparatus comprises a second connector for fluidly coupling the apparatus to a subsea production system and a flow control system. The flow control system is configured to operate in a first mode in which flushing fluid is directed from the subsea fluid conduit into the vessel, and is configured to operate in a second mode of operation in which the fluid is diverted from the subsea flowline to the subsea production system. In another aspect, the apparatus is configured to provide a detectable signal to surface when a pre-determined volume of flushing fluid has been received in the vessel.
