DNV-RP-F110 Global buckling of submarine pipelines

Recommended practice

Edition 2019-09 - Amended 2021-09

This recommended practice (RP) is to provide design methodology and criteria to fulfil the functional requirements regarding global buckling in DNV-ST-F101. In case of a pipeline laying unburied on the seabed, the RP gives design methodology and criteria to allow the pipeline to buckle in a safe and controlled manner. For a buried pipeline, the RP ensures that the pipeline stays in place without any upheaval or lateral buckling.
