    摘要: An offshore system which includes a vessel hull (2) provided with a moonpool (6) in the form of vertical cylinder through the hull (2) which is open at least at keel level, a cylindrical shaped turret (4) placed within the moonpool opening and rotatable hold within the moonpool (6) via a bearing system consisting of at least one submerged bearing that is placed in the submerged part of the annulus formed between the moonpool (6) and the turret (4), and mooring lines that are connected to the lower part of the turret (4) and to the seabed, so that the vessel (1) can weathervane around the turret (4) when the vessel (1) is moored offshore, characterized in that, within the annulus in the submerged moonpool (6) part both the turret (4) and moonpool (6) are provided with extensions that imbricate each other in which fluid or gas can be trapped so to create a dry area for the submerged bearing.

    摘要: A system is described for use at offshore locations of large depth, for mooring a production vessel or floating unit (14) at a location over a hydrocarbon reservoir (26) and for connecting risers (101) that can be carrying hydrocarbons up from the sea floor to a production vessel that stores the hydrocarbons, flowlines for water injection, gas lift, gas export, umbilicals and mooring lines that moor the vessel. Both the mooring lines and the risers are disconnectably connected to the vessel though a connection buoy, or connector (16). The invention concerns a system that allows a connector (16) to be used that is of minimum mass and volume, to ease its handling especially during its connection and disconnection to and from a vessel.

    摘要: A chain connector for holding a chain (14) that moors a vessel to the sea floor under perhaps 2000 tons tension, which can be quickly disconnected in an emergency by applying a moderate disconnecting force such as 50 tons. The chain is held by ratchets (24, 26) that are mounted on arms (34, 36). The arms have upper ends (35) that are pivotally mounted on a housing (38) and have free lower ends (44), with the lower ends being held by cams (50) on locking dogs (52) that have locking dog lower ends (51) pivotally mounted on the housing and free upper ends (60). A hydraulic actuator (70) has pins (58) that engage the upper ends of the locking dogs to prevent the arms and dogs from pivoting apart until the locking dog upper ends (60) are raised.
