Under certain conditions submarine pipelines bury themselves down to two diameters below the original sea bed. A field example is presented, and an analysis is given of the possible mechanisms involved. Seeking a wider application of this phenomenon, a stimulated self-burial method is introduced, using fins attached to the pipe. Tentative laboratory tests show promising results.
