3) WAVE HEIGHT AND DURABILITY
Flo-pipe© can operate in any wave height. The only restriction will be that of the pipeline and its flexibility. ie how many flexibles or ball joints you have in between the ridged pipeline.
The modules are manufactured using the same techniques as navigation and mooring buoys,which are deployed throughout the world in many different environments.
