Deterioration of subsea cable, pipeline and umbilical crossings often occur due to relative
movement between the crossing members. Any crossing design should aim to achieve a
sound, fit for purpose solution that will be maintenance free over the crossing life. Due to the
increased density of subsea fields, crossing instances need to be increasingly
accommodated. Current subsea design codes are not explicit in the criteria for subsea
crossings, beyond recommending pipeline separation distances. The work within this paper …
