Abstract
A pipe reeling system can be positioned in a location adjacent a dock to prepare spools of wound pipeline. The pipe segments are delivered to the facility from a steel mill or other manufacturer and placed on one or more pipe storage racks in a first orientation. The pipe segments are then moved to an elevated pipe feeding bed, from which they are fed in a second direction, transverse to the first direction through a plurality of weld stations. The pipe segments welded end-to-end form a continuous pipe unit, which is transferred to a spool and wound thereon. The spools can be prepared in advance of a request from a pipeline operator and stored in the facility on the reels until required.
