English term or phrase: tangling
Flying leads – movement
Movement of flying leads (FLs) can be problematic due to often complex
*as-installed layering/tangling of components* (including other FLs and
flexible well jumpers) on the seabed. FLs might also be effectively
cemented to the seabed in some situations, due to overflow of cement
during well cementing operations. All FLs should be carefully surveyed
prior to attempting any movement of FLs.
Deciding whether to disconnect and subsequently reconnect a functioning
FL in order to relocate it for some purpose, versus leaving it connected
throughout the relocation exercise, is a decision that has many pros and
cons that should be taken into account on a case-by-case basis.

enmarañados


Explanation:
layering= por capas, superpuestos
tangling= enmarañados, enrollados
Parece que hace referencia a la forma en que están colocados los componentes que dificulta el movimiento. No se si te encaja en el contexto general.
