A method of laying a pipeline comprises the steps of providing a number of lengths of pipe (162) to be coupled together to form the pipeline. Co-operating connector formations (1, 2) are provided on each adjacent end of the pipes (102) to be coupled together. A first pipe (102) is positioned at a location and a second pipe (102) is positioned adjacent to tile first pipe (102) in end- to-end relationship with the first pipe. The respective connector formations (1, 2) on the adjacent ends are brought into contact with each other and a force applied to the connector formations (1 2) to form at least one of the connector formations. The connector formations (1, 2) are then made together by causing relative movement between the first and second pipes (102) in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axes of the pipes (102), and the force is subsequently relaxed to couple the connector formations (1, 2) together.

Procédé de mise en place d'un pipeline comprenant les étapes consistant à préparer un certain nombre de longueurs de tuyau (162) destinées à être raccordées ensemble afin de former le pipeline, ainsi que des raccords (1, 2) coopérants placés à chaque extrémité adjacente des tuyaux (102) à raccorder, à placer à un certain endroit un premier tuyau (102) et bout à bout avec celui-ci, un second tuyau (102), à mettre en contact l'un avec l'autre les raccords (1, 2) respectifs placés sur les extrémités adjacentes et à appliquer une force sur ces raccords (1, 2) afin de former au moins un raccordement. Ensuite, on assemble les raccords (1, 2) en provoquant un déplacement relatif entre le premier et le second tuyau (102) dans une direction sensiblement parallèle aux axes longitudinaux des tuyaux (102), puis on relâche cette force afin de coupler les raccords (1, 2).
