A Pipeline Retrieval Tool provides the connection between the pipeline and the recovery cable required to handle or manoeuvre the pipeline end. The Pipeline Retrieval Tool engages in the pipeline bore to provide a secure but controllable facility for the connection of the retrieval cable.
Taper grip locks operate on a wedge principle, improving the connection efficiency as the load increases. Once set, this fail-safe mode of operation enables the mechanical connection with the pipeline to remain secure independent of the tool hydraulic activation system. A seal and vent system within the Pipeline Retrieval Tool assembly enables the pipe to be de-watered prior to the lifting operation.
