Abstract: A system for transporting equipment and individuals within a conduit and/or a pipeline. The system includes a ground floor, a first floor, a connecting rod, an ovality compensation mechanism, a couple of holding arms at a top end of the system, and a winch. The ground floor and the first floor are configured to receive and keep an operator onto them. The ovality compensation mechanism is attached to a lower side of the first floor by utilizing a couple of connecting chains. The ovality compensation mechanism is configured to increase a diameter of a pipe segment of the pipeline.

Abstract: A method for installing pipeline segments within a conduit. The method includes a step of securing a first pipe segment of the pipeline segments at a top end of the conduit, a step of aligning a main axis of a second pipe segment of the pipeline segments with the main axis of the pipeline, a step of lifting the second pipe segment from a first position associated with a bottom end of the conduit to a second position adjacent to the first pipe segment, a step of abutting a top rim of the second pipe segment against a bottom rim of the first pipe segment, and a step of attaching the top rim of the second pipe segment to the bottom rim of the first pipe segment.

Abstract: A system for rotating a vessel may include a container assembly, a linear actuating mechanism, and a double-pivot link. An exemplary container assembly may include a head end frame that may be spaced apart from and interconnected with a tail end frame. An exemplary container assembly may hold the vessel or a portion of the vessel. An exemplary linear actuating mechanism may be coupled to a bottom edge of the tail end frame and may drive a translational movement of the bottom edge of the tail end frame along a first axis. An exemplary double-pivot link may be pivotally connected between a top edge of the head end frame and a fixed revolute joint. An exemplary double-pivot link may rotate the top edge about the fixed revolute joint responsive to the translational movement of the bottom edge of the tail end frame along the first axis.
