ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method is disclosed for the insulation of pipes, especially oil and gas pipes, constructed above the ground. The insulation elements are brought to the installation site in plane form, are lifted off the transport vehicle and closed around the pipe to be insulated by means of a hydraulically operating installation device, which is fitted on a jib crane mounted on the transport vehicle. The elements are installed mechanically one after the other along the pipe irrespective of the position of pipe support structures in relation to the elements, preferably so that a portion of the protective mantle of the element, project- ing from one end of the element and provided with an inside seal, is closed around the end of the protective mantle of the preceding element. The pipe is fastened to the support structures by means of bands, the tensioning means of which are pressed into the insulation. The insulation element is cut open at the pipe supports and the closing jaws of the installation equipment are provided with openings for these supports, as a result of which openings the installation work can also be performed mechanically at the support structures.
