摘要:
Systems and methods for dockside regasification of liquefied natural gas (LNG) are described herein. The methods include providing LNG from a LNG carrier to a regasification vessel. The LNG may be regasified on the regasification vessel. The regasified natural gas may be discharged with a high pressure arm to a dock and delivered onshore. The regasification vessel may be moored to the dock. The LNG carrier may be moored to the regasification vessel or the dock.

The invention provides a balanced arm (201) for transferring a fluid product, having a transfer compass comprising an inner transfer member (208) and an outer transfer member (221), articulated together, and a counterweight system (203) for balancing the transfer compass, characterized in that the compass is installed on a turntable (215) rotatable about a vertical axis, to rotationally drive the transfer compass about that axis, and the balancing system comprises at least one counterweight (207; 207′) mounted so as to be able to turn about an axis (206) of horizontal general orientation, on a support (251) fixed to the turntable and functionally linked to the inner transfer member to provide the balancing of the transfer compass.

A hydrocarbon transfer system includes a first structure with a length direction and a transverse direction having a frame carrying a vertical arm with at its end a fluid connecting member for connecting to a second structure which is moored alongside the first structure. The connecting member includes a winch and first guiding elements for engaging with second guiding elements on the second structure by connecting a wire to the winch on one end an to the second structure on the other end, and a tension device for moving the vertical arm away from the second structure for tensioning the wire.teh

The present invention relates to a device for automatically and autonomously releasing a mechanical cable or rope connection between two elements, in a zone having explosive atmospheric conditions, comprising: a mechanical assembly in the form of an enclosure which can be traversed by a cable or rope and which contains at least one sectioner comprising a chisel associated with an anvil and means for moving the chisel with respect to the anvil in order to cut the cable or rope, means for positioning the cable or rope making it possible to pass the cable or rope between the anvil and the chisel, and means for measuring the tension of the cable or rope; the control means making it possible to automatically trigger the sectioner. The chisel and preferably the anvil are made of an anti-spark material, particularly of a beryllium-copper (Be—Cu) alloy.

The present disclosure comprises a platform and a manifold, the latter being intended to be connected to a fluid tank. The manifold comprises a length of rigid tube defining a pipe of approximately horizontal axis and a length of connecting tube for connection to a transfer line connected to the length of rigid tube. The length of connecting tube is permanently attached to the length of rigid tube and is hinged to the length of rigid tube to allow movement relative to the length of rigid tube between: —a retracted rest position in which the length of connecting tube extends entirely inside the inner edge; and —a first or filling position, in which the free end of the length of connecting tube projects out from the outer edge of the support platform.

The invention concerns an assembly comprising balanced loading and unloading arm (14) installed at a first location and having articulated pipeline arms (15, 16) mounted through one of its end on a base (18) and provided at the other of its ends with a system connecting (28) the articulated pipeline arms to coupling means (29) installed at the second location. It further comprises a cable (32) linked through one of its ends to the connecting system (28) and through the other of its ends to means (35-39) adapted to subject said cable to constant tension, and a connecting winch (42) whereon is wound a connection cable (41) for bringing the connecting system (28) in a position to be connected to the coupling means (29).

The transfer device between a jib including at least one pipe section (54a, 54b) fixed to the jib (12) and a coupling, comprises a system of concertina or deformable diamond-shaped type articulated pipe segments and actuated by cable, at least one pipe section (24a, 24b) connecting to the coupling means. Each section fixed to the jib or connecting to the coupling is connected to one end of the system by a bend and rotary joints (53a, 53b), the bend being fixed to a support (51, 52) suspended from the jib. Each end of the system is fixed to a support (74a) movably mounted in rotation by a bearing (78a) on the bend support to which the end is connected, concentrically with the joint (72a) connecting the end to the bend. The invention applies in particular to the transfer of liquefied natural gas from a marine platform to an oil tanker.

This invention provides for a spring-balanced loading arm with a positive lock-down device use in a material handling system. It includes a swivel arm which is pivotally connected at one end to a support structure for swivel movement both in horizontal and vertical planes relative to the support structure. There is also provided an extendable lock-down device for positively locking the swivel arm. One end of the lock-down device is pivotally connected to the support structural and the other end is fixedly connected to the swivel arm. The lock-down device is adapted to be locked in position at several predetermined lengths. When the lock-down device is locked in a given position, it also positively locks the swivel arm and prevents any vertical movement of the loading arm.
