The present invention provides an apparatus for use in laying a submarine pipeline. The apparatus includes a vessel having a deck area, alignment means on the deck area which aligns pipe sections to form a pipeline, guidance means for guiding the pipeline and discharge means that are mounted onto the deck area of the vessel and receive the pipeline. The apparatus also includes tensioner means for controlling the movement of the pipeline and an exit port in the deck area for the passage of the pipeline from the discharge means into the water. The alignment means are inclined with respect to the longitudinal axis of the vessel or with respect to the horizontal plane of the deck of the vessel or inclined with respect to both.
