The paper reviews the Rocky Flowline project from preliminary design through detail design, testing, fabrication, and installation. The emphasis of the paper is on the issues involved with deep water insulated flowlines, with special emphasis on fabricating and reeling insulated pipe-in-pipe flowlines. The paper highlights the design and installation of 21,000 ft of dual insulated 3-inch inside 6-inch flowlines in water depths up to 1,785 feet. The paper and project is of significance to those in the industry involved in deep water oil development and the transportation of waxy crudes.
