Typical subsea cryogenic pipeline designs consist of two coaxial pipes, or Pipe-in-Pipe (PiP) concept. Some designs add a secondary containment (third pipe) to create the so called Pipe-in-Pipe-in-Pipe (PiPiP) concept. The inner pipe transports the cryogenic fluid, the annular space provides the necessary insulation properties and the outer pipe(s) offers protection from the external environment (pressure, corrosion, impacts). 2, record 4, English, - pipe%2Din%2Dpipe%2Din%2Dpipe

United Nations Statistics Division, Version 1. 0, 1998. Purpose : A classification of products, based on the physical characteristics of goods or on the nature of the services rendered. CPC provides a framework for international comparison of the various kinds of statistics dealing with goods, services and assets. It covers categories for all products(goods and services) which can be subjects of domestic and international transactions or which can be put into stocks. CPC covers products which are an output of economic activities, including transportable and non-transportable goods and services, and land and intangible assets which arise from legal and accounting actions such as patents, licenses, trademarks and copyrights. CPC also includes a major part of tangible assets, namely all constructions and civil engineering works. 1, record 9, English, - Central%20Product%20Classification
