Abstract

See full text

An artificial cable trench (ACT) includes a body and a trench formed into the body. The trench is configured to hold a cable, umbilical, or similar feature. The ACT may be positioned along a seabed or shoreline to stabilize the cable and thereby prevent movement and eventual damage to the cable. The body of the ACT is shaped to overcome the flow induced loads caused by the relative motion between the cable and the surrounding waves and sea currents as well as providing effective friction/engagement with a contact surface (e.g., a shoreline surface). The ACT may have features that result in self-burying in sand and/or preventing lateral movement.
