ABSTRACT:
A compact structure is disclosed for supporting a pipeline suspended over a sea bottom vale. In a preferred embodiment, the structure has a triangular outline, the sloping side of the triangle being a guideway of a wedge slidable unidirectionally, that is only upwards, until contacting the pipe to be supported.
Actuating mechanisms are provided for the movable members of the triangular structure. The entire structure is mounted on a base plate and can be towed by a subsea vehicle until reaching the correct position.
