A J-tube is a conduit that has the shape of the letter “J” that is attached to the platform. J-tube consists of the following components:
- Vertical Tube
- Bottom Bend
- Bell Mouth
It is a common practice in the offshore industry to use J-tube as a method of installation of SMALL diameter flowline, electrical cable or pipeline bundle as connecting a small diameter pipeline to the topside facilities through a small diameter riser is not very convenient in terms of supports. To overcome difficulties of installation and protection, small diameter pipelines / cables are installed by pulling-in through J-tube.
