A device is provided for the interconnection of two flexible flowlines extending between a subsea production station and a surface facility to allow running of a pig from one line to another. The device is a modular crossover apparatus which includes a control valve connected between two curved pipelines and a pair of substantially Y-shaped connectors inserted in the flowlines respectively with ends of the curved pipelines remote from the control valve connected to the connectors. This device enables pigs launched from a first site into a first line to return via a second line back to the first site, and enables pigging in installations (for example, subsea pipelines) with restricted accessibility.
