After days of delays in efforts to seal one of the two ruptures in a flexible submarine oil pipeline, Star Petroleum Refining Plc (SPRC) is set to install a collar clamp over the defect today (Monday), with the sealing operation expected to be concluded on Friday.

 

The sealing efforts entered their 11th day today, and the 49th day of extracting residual oil from the pipe.

 

Attempts to seal the upper rupture were originally scheduled to be completed in eight days. The company explained, however, that the maintenance work was delayed by ebb tides, which have forced workers to proceed with extra caution.

Perhaps it might have been easier (though probably not cheaper) to replace the pipe completely and repair the faulty one onshore.
