Abstract
A reinforced flexible tubular pipe including an inner liner ( ) that forms a barrier against outflow of medium that flows through the pipe, the inner liner ( ) being encased by at least one reinforcing layer having a space in which a number of profiles are configured that are coiled around the inner liner such that the profiles are completely or partially surrounded by a lumen ( ) that allows transport of fluids in the longitudinal direction of the pipe. Outside the reinforcing layer an outer coating ( ) is provided to form a barrier against inflow of fluids or gases from the surroundings of the pipe to the reinforcing layer. At least one flow path ( ) is provided to convey fluid or gas away from the lumen ( ). This flow path ( ) is provided with an inlet opening that debouches in the lumen ( ) and an outlet opening ( ) that ends in the inner liner of the tubular pipe. The flow path ( ) may be provided with a pump ( ) or a one-way valve ( ) that prevents fluid or gas from flowing into the lumen from the pipe interior.
