Definitions

  • a mooring boom is secured to the mast structure below the water level and extends sideways therefrom in a horizontal position which boom carries one or more mooring towers provided with floats and rising upwardly therefrom to a suitable height above, the water level.
  • a 'riser pipe runs upwardly through the mast structure being connected at its lower end to a pipeline running to the shore and being coupled at its upper end to 'a pipe running through the mooring boom and towers for connection with the pipe system of a ship.
  • the invention relates to a device for mooring ships offshore, in particular for the transportation of fluid materials, such as oil between a ship and the shore.
  • the invention has for its main object to provide a device for mooring ships ofi'shore, which may replace the conventional mooring buoys and which at the same time can be adapted for use as a terminal for loading and unloading fluid materials, such as oil. More in particular, the invention has for its object to provide such a mooring device allowing a quick and eflicient mooring and loading or unloading of ships, also in case of a rough sea.
  • the mooring device of the invention generally comprises a mast structure rising from a fixed base member on the sea bottom to the water surface and pivotally anchored at its lower end to this base member for universal lateral swinging movement and for free rotation about its longitudinal axis, the mast strutcure comprising one or more floats or buloyancy chambers adajacent its upper end tending to keep the mast structure in a vertical position.
  • a mooring boom is secured to the mast structure extending sideways therefrom and likewise comprising "ice float means supporting the boom in a substantially horizontal position.
  • the mooring boom is preferably attached to the mast structure at a distance below the water level, the boom carrying one or more mooring towers rising upwardly therefrom to a suitable distance above the water surface and comprising the boom floating means.

  • the mast structure with the mooring boom connected thereto is thus free to rotate about its longitudinal axis whereby the mooring boom can at all times assume a position in accordance with the prevailing currents.
  • the buoyancy chambers of the mast structure provide an effective stabilizing force in that on a tilting movement of the mast structure with respect to the vertical caused by an external force, these chambers or floats produce a counteracting moment which increases With an increasing deviation of the mast structure from its vertical position.
  • the shock forces exerted on the device by a ship mooring thereto are thus yieldingly and efficiently damped by a tilting movement of the mast structure and by a swinging movement of the mooring boom about the vertical axis of the mast structure.
  • the mast structure and the mooring boom may each form at least partly an open frame structure with closed hollow structural members, which thus contribute to the buoyancy of these parts.
  • a fixed rigid riser pipe extends vertically upwardly from the sea bottom centrally through the mast structure, which riser pipe is connected at its lower end to a pipeline running to the shore and is connected at its upper end above the water level through a horizontal swivel pipe coupling and a flexible hose to a pipeline extending longitudinally through the mooring boom.
