English term or phrase: tieback pipeline
Es geht um Gasförderung auf See:

an unmanned platform and the North Seas longest tieback pipeline to an onshore gas plant

Muss sich irgendwie um eine Pipeline/Rohrleitung mit Zugband oder Rückholfunktion handeln - aber der korrekte deutsche Begriff?

Explanation:
A subsea tie-back is an underwater pipeline that delivers oil or gas from remote producers (eg recovery ship, floating platform etc) to a central processing plant (oil/gas platform etc). The remote plant is ''tied back'' to the processor, hence the name.

(rück)verlängerte Leitung


Explanation:
Das hat mit Zugband nichts gemein. Es bedeutet einfach ein (rückverlängerte) Leitung von der Bohrinsel/Plattform zum Festland. Öl/Gas unter Formationsdruck wird dann direkt zum Festland geliefert.
