A connection end-piece of a flexible pipe includes an end vault extending along a central axis; an outer cover fixed to the end vault and defining, with the end vault, a reception chamber for receiving an end section of the armor elements of the flexible pipe; at least one annular member applied externally to the armor elements of the flexible pipe, the annular member being at least partially accommodated in the reception chamber between the armor elements and the outer cover. The annular member applies a radial tightening pressure higher than 100 bars onto the armor elements toward the central axis of the flexible pipe.

Connection end-piece of a flexible pipe for transporting fluid and associated method

This endpiece includes at least one end segment of each armor element, an end vault and a cover, the end vault and the cover delimiting between them a chamber for receiving the end segment and a material for filling the receiving chamber, in which the end segment is embedded. The endpiece includes a spacing member positioned so as to internally bear upon the end segments of the armor elements of at least one armor layer. This spacing member defining, on at least one end segment of a armor element of said armor layer, contact areas axially spaced apart along said end segment, the contact areas delimiting between intermediate contact spaces between the filling material and the end segment.

Connecting endpiece of a flexible pipe with a spacing member, associated flexible pipe and method

The present disclosure relates to a flexible tubular pipe () of the unbonded type and including, from the inside to the outside, an internal carcass (), first and second polymeric sheaths (), at least one tensile armor layer () and a polymeric sealing sheath () and also at each of its ends, a connecting endpiece () comprising i.a., a tubular sleeve (). The tubular sleeve () of a first endpiece () includes means () for draining the gases from the gap () between the sheaths () towards the outside of the pipe () and the tubular sleeve of the second endpiece () including means for draining the gases from the gap () between two sheaths () towards the outside or towards the inside of the pipe ().
