Definitions

  • the invention concerns an arrangement for emergency release of a hose end valve from its connected position with a connector valve and a method for carrying out the same emergency release.
  • the hose end valve is provided at a hose end of a hose which carries fluid.
  • the fluid to be transferred by the invention may be any kind of fluid.
  • the invention may be employed for the transfer of hydrocarbons, including the transfer of LNG, and vaporized LNG, LPG and other fluid in gaseous and liquid form.
  • the invention may be used when transferring fluid such as LNG from a floating LNG production facility (FLNG) to an LNG carrier.
  • FLNG floating LNG production facility
  • the transfer system may then comprise three separate hose end suspension lines, two for the transfer of LNG to the LNG carrier and one for the return of vaporized LNG to the FLNG.
  • the transfer of fluid in between two structures is a demanding and risky operation. Especially when the transfer is carried out in the open sea, and when the fluid is both a cryogenic fluid and a hydrocarbon which is highly flammable and explosive, the transfer operation is especially risky and special care needs to be taken.
  • the fluid may be transferred between structures where both are located in water.
  • the fluid transfer may occur between structures where one of these is located in water and the other one is a land based structure.
  • the structures located in water may comprise different kinds of vessels, barges, ships and platforms or other structures suitable for loading or offloading.
  • the structures or vessels may be floating, submersible, semisubmersible or resting on the seabed.
  • Various systems may be employed for holding the structures in position, for instance mooring arrangements such as a turret system, anchor positioning or a dynamic positioning system may be used.
  • Prior art solutions for transfer of fluid between structures include the arrangement of a tandem position, stern offloading or a side by side configuration.
  • This solution is a rigid loading arm which is positioned on a first structure for instance a FLNG, for connection to a manifold structure on a second structure for instance a LNG carrier.
  • the arm is balanced by a counter weight and makes use of rigid pipes for the transfer of fluid from one structure to the other.
  • the system also employs a swivel system to be able to compensate for relative movement between the two structures.
  • the large masses of the system made of rigid pipes and heavy counterweight may in some situations result in high dynamic forces and considerable impact on the manifold as a function of the relative movements between the structures. This may occur during connection to the second structure, and also during use when the system is installed and the fluid is transferred from one structure to the other.
  • the manifolds on the LNG carrier are especially vulnerable in these given circumstances. And the resulting forces working on the system set requirements to the wave height and thus restrictions to when the loading arm may be used for transfer of fluid.
  • the attachment of the hose end suspension line to the counterweight may be provided in various ways such as passing the hose end suspension line around a sheave or a pulley in a looped shaped manner and then into attachment with a winch, or by attaching the hose end suspension line directly to the counterweight in a fixed manner after the winch.
  • the hose end suspension line may be attached directly to the counterweight without a winch involved.
  • the at least one line guiding element is arranged in an elevated position in the support structure compared to the position of the counterweight and the position of the hose end and the hose end valve.
  • the arrangement for emergency release and method for emergency release is independent of the chosen arrangement and method for connection of the hose end to the receiving assembly.
  • the equipment for connection to the receiving assembly may be rearranged to the working arrangement of the emergency release.
  • the hose end is arranged with the hose end valve and a connector valve connected to the hose end valve.
  • the hose end valve is to be connected to the receiving assembly.
  • the hose end suspension line is attached to the hose end valve and a hose end guiding line may be attached to the connector valve.
  • the hose end with the hose end valve and the connector valve is initially positioned elevated above the receiving assembly.
  • the hose end valve is separated from the connector valve, and by this separation the weight impact on the hose end is redistributed.
  • the weight of the hose end with the hose end valve is smaller than the counterweight, and by the use of the weight balancing principles provided by the suspension of the hose suspension line in the support structure and the arrangement of the two end portions of the hose end suspension line as explained above, the counterweight causes the hose end with the hose end valve to be pulled away from the receiving assembly.
  • a suspension arrangement connects the hose end suspension line to the hose end for instance at the hose end valve.
  • the suspension arrangement is provided to balance the weight of the hose end valve with the hose end so that the hose end valve is tilted downwards in direction of the receiving assembly, when the hose end valve is pulled away from the receiving assembly.
  • the suspension arrangement may comprise a pulling line, a lifting line and a suspension bracket.
  • the lifting line is attached to an attachment point of the hose end suspension line and to a first end portion of the suspension bracket.
  • the second end portion of the suspension bracket is connected to the hose end.
  • the pulling line is connected to the second end portion of the suspension bracket and to the attachment point of the hose end suspension line.
  • the configuration of the suspension arrangement positions the hose end valve tilted when being pulled away with the hose end suspension line.
  • the moving of the hose end with the hose end valve away from the receiving assembly causes first the tightening of the lifting line, and thereafter the tightening of the pulling line.
  • the hose end valve is tilted downwards in direction of the receiving assembly.
  • the counter weight could be positioned enabling a downward movement of the counter weight in order to carry out the lifting of the hose end with the hose end valve.
  • the counter weight is arranged to move in a counter weight guide path.
  • the counter weight guide path may be provided with an upper end stop and a lower end stop.
  • the counter weight may be placed in an upper end stop position, or in a position somewhere in between the upper end stop and the lower end stop, as a result of the installation of the hose end with the hose end valve and the connector valve as described above, in a sufficient height above the lower end stop to be able to carry out the emergency function.
  • the counterweight may be positioned in a middle position in between the upper and lower end stop.
  • the support structure may be located on a structure such as a FLNG and that the receiving assembly is located on a structure such as an LNG carrier.
  • the hose end guiding line 35 is connected to a support structure 200 by line guiding means 38, 34 such as sheaves, and is provided with lifting and lowering means such as a winch 33 for paying out and retrieving the hose end guiding line 35.
  • the hose end suspension line 27 is connected to the hose end valve 13 by a suspension arrangement 120.
  • the suspension arrangement 120 comprises a pulling line 116 and a lifting line 117.
  • the lifting line 117 is connected to an attachment point 121 of the hose end suspension line 27 and to a first end portion of a suspension bracket 118.
  • the second end portion of the suspension bracket 118 is connected to the hose end 63 and in the embodiment the suspension bracket 118 is shown attached to the hose end valve 13.
  • the suspension bracket 118 is composed of linear and angular portions in order to obtain a correct tilting of the hose valve when lifting the hose end 63 away from the receiving assembly.
  • the pulling line 116 is connected to the second end portion of the suspension bracket 118 and to the attachment point 121.
  • the lifting line 117 is provided as a separate line, but the lifting line 117 may alternatively be provided as a portion of the hose end suspension line.
  • the pulling line 116 is longer than the lifting line 117.
  • the support structure 200 comprises a vertical structure 1 and an arm 106 which is oriented essentially in a direction transverse to the vertical structure 1.
  • the support structure 200 may be located on board a FLNG 70 as shown in the figs.
  • the hose end suspension line 27 is shown connected to the support structure 200 by line guiding means 28, 31 such as sheaves, and is provided with lifting and lowering means such as a counter weight 22 which is arranged movable in the counterweight guiding path 110.
  • the hose end suspension line runs through a sheave 23 and into engagement with a winch 24.
  • the counterweight guiding path 110 has upper end stops 25 and lower end stops 26, and in fig 1 , the counterweight 22 is shown in a position below and close to the upper end stops 25.
  • the hose end suspension line 27 in fig 1 is also shown arranged with a winch 24 for paying out and retrieving the hose end suspension line 27.
  • the hose end suspension line 27 runs through a sheave 23 in a looped shape manner and into engagement with a winch 24. Even if the sheave 23 here is shown as a single movable pulley it is also possible to provide solutions of various ways of rigging with several pulleys mounted on the fixed and moving axles.
  • the weight of the combination of the hose end valve 13 and the connector valve 14 exceeds the weight of the counterweight, thereby lowering the hose end suspension line 27 and guiding the hose end 63 with the hose end valve 13 and the connector valve 14 along the hose end guide line 35 into the installation position.
  • the counterweight 22 is brought to a position at the upper end stop, and when the installation is completed, the counterweight 22 is lowered until reaching the position between the upper end stop 25 and lower end stop 26, for instance a middle position, as the one shown in fig 1 .
  • Fig 2a and 2b show the procedure for retrieving a hose end 63 with the hose end valve 13 by the use of the counterweight 22. This is a procedure especially suitable for an emergency situation when the hose end 63 with the hose end valve 13 needs to be evacuated quickly and in this circumstance the use of a counterweight offers a simple and reliable method.
  • the guiding arrangement may be provided with a bracket 30 which guides the hose end valve 13 away from the connector valve 14 in a predetermined manner when lifting the hose end valve 13 away from the connector valve 14 by the use of the hose end suspension line 27.
  • bracket 30 may be used to ensure a correct separation of the hose end valve 13 from the connector valve 14.
  • a distance element may be attached to the hose end valve 13.
  • One end of the distance element may fit into a recess provided at the connector valve 14. With the end of the distance element arranged to follow the outline of the recess during lifting by the hose end suspension line 27, a controlled separation of the hose end valve 13 from the connector valve 14 is obtained.
  • Another possible alternative is to combine the bracket 30 with the distance element and the recess.
  • the counterweight which is larger than the combined weight of the hose end 63 and the hose end valve 13, is allowed to start its downward movement as illustrated with arrow A in the counter weight guide path 110 as shown in fig 2 .
  • the arrangement with respective counterweights connected to each hose ensures that the disconnection of each hose end with the hose end valve may be controlled individually.
  • the disconnection procedure for the individual hose end with the hose end valve will follow the procedure as described above and the disconnection of each hose end with hose end valve may be carried out at the same time or sequentially.
