ABSTRACT:
A guide tube for a flexible pipe for transporting hydrocarbons comprising an internal tubular element of a substantially rectilinear section extending along an axis (A) and extended by a free section having a curvature along its length and a wall which is internal with respect to the curvature against which the flexible pipe is accommodated when frictionally carried through guides. The rectilinear section comprises eccentric guides for directing the flexible pipe away from the axis (A) and in a direction opposite to the curvature of the free section such that the pipe is deviated from the internal wall.
