Abstract

En stigerørsbøye (36) holder et flertall stigerør (19) og er utløsbart dokket inne i en hovedsakelig sylindrisk fortøyningasvivel (20) på et flytende lagerfartøy (10) på et sted over havflaten (12) for å gi tørr tilgang til koblinger for hurtig frakobling/tilkobling (32,40) på fortøyningssvivelen (2 0) og stigerørs-bøyen (36) . Et lodd (58) er koblet med ankerkjettingen (44) til stigerørsbøyen (6) som er kontrollert av en vinsj (62) . Ved frakobling fra fartøyet (10) plasseres stigerørsbøyen (3 6) på en forhåndsbestemt vanndybde nedenfor tankskiptrafikk og høye bølgebelastninger. Stigerørsbøyen (3 6) er dokket inne i fortøyningssvivelen (2 0) uavhengig av posisjonerings-anordningen såsom ankerkjettinger (17) mellom hav-bunnen og fortøyningssvivelen, eller et skyve-posisjoneringssystem som omfatter propell-aggregater (16) på fartøyet.A riser buoy (36) holds a plurality of risers (19) and is releasably docked within a generally cylindrical mooring swivel (20) of a floating storage vessel (10) at a location above sea level (12) to provide dry access to quick disconnect couplings. / connection (32,40) on the mooring swivel (20) and the riser buoy (36). A weight (58) is connected with the anchor chain (44) to the riser buoy (6) which is controlled by a winch (62). When disconnecting from the vessel (10), place the riser buoy (3 6) at a predetermined water depth below tanker traffic and high wave loads. The riser buoy (36) is docked inside the mooring swivel (20) independently of the positioning device such as anchor chains (17) between the seabed and the mooring swivel, or a sliding positioning system comprising propeller assemblies (16) on the vessel.
