Offshore Pipelines -

Offshore pipelines, or subsea pipelines, are complex engineering structures laid on or below the seabed to transport oil, natural gas, or chemicals over long distances. Recognized as the most efficient and safest method for energy transport, these systems are critical infrastructure for the global energy market, with over 3.5 million kilometers of pipelines existing worldwide.
