The Pipe Recovery Tool was specifically made for the recovery of pipes or pipelines during offshore installation projects. The tool has long friction pads preventing the pipe walls from being overstressed, as well as a removable lifting arm that allows for retrieval via a stinger. The Pipe Recovery Tool is suitable for different pipe ranges (from 8″ to 42″), with a 1,000-ton holding capacity. It is also equipped with IQIP’s fail-safe principle, in which mechanical load applied on the tool in longitudinal direction results in a transversal force on the pipe, creating the ‘locking/fail-safe’ connection.
