Zusammenfassung:	The invention relates to a device for towing very long tubular objects (10). Said device includes a frame (61) and an assembly (62) that is removably attachable to the frame (61). The removable assembly (62) includes: - pulling means (63) capable, by means of the movement thereof, of driving the object (10), via friction, in a towing direction; and - grasping means (64) capable of exerting force on the pulling means (63) such as to continuously keep the pulling means (63) and the towed object (10) in contact with each other, the grasping means (64) being moved, in relation to the towed object (10), in a direction opposite the towing direction. The frame (61) includes drive means (66, 67), removably connected to the pulling means (63) and the grasping means (64) and configured so as to move the pulling means (63) and the grasping means (64) in a coordinated manner so as to ensure continuous, uniform pulling of the object (10).
