  • Patent number: 11506325
    Abstract: A device is for operation on a pressurized bolt connection between a first flanged tubular and a second flanged tubular. The device has a first clamping member with a first contact portion adapted to bear against the flange of the first tubular, a second clamping member with a second contact portion adapted to bear against the flange of the second tubular, and a connection arrangement for pulling the first clamping member and second clamping member together. The first contact portion and the second contact portion are adapted to bear at an inner part of the flanges between the bolts of the bolt connection and the body of the two tubulars.

  • Patent number: 11149895
    Abstract: An arrangement is for separating a connection between two pressurized flanged tube sections. The arrangement comprises a first type element having a first body adapted to be arranged around a flange of a first tube section, and which first body comprising a first sealing arrangement, and a second type element comprising a second body adapted to be arranged around a flange of a second tube section, and which second body comprising a second sealing arrangement. The second type element further comprises a displaceable obstruction. The first and the second type elements are adapted to form a sealed compartment that allows the flanges of the tube sections to be displaced away from each other so that a gap is formed, which allows the obstruction to enter and isolate the second tube section.

  • Publication number: 20200032945
    Abstract: An arrangement is for forming a freeze plug in a tubing. The arrangement includes a first and a second displacement element adapted to be displaced within the tubing with a medium between them that is adapted to form the freeze plug. The first and the second displacement elements include, at least at a respective end portion facing the medium between them, a sensor arrangement for measuring at least one of a pressure and a temperature.
