    Pipeline Buoyancy Analysis R1 6 in

    This document provides design parameters and buoyancy calculations for a 6-inch pipeline. It specifies properties of the pipe, coatings, soils and other materials. The calculations determine the weight and buoyancy of the bare pipe, coatings, and fully installed pipeline in open trench conditions. The results show the pipeline will have a negative buoyancy of -842.67 lbs per joint, so concrete weights will not be used as an anti-buoyancy force to prevent floating in swampy areas.

    Since the pipeline has ngative buoyancy force in the swampy area, concrete set-on weight will not be used as the anti-b
    force to prevent the pipeline from floating.
