FPSO Emergency Shutdown Backup Protection is an important consideration for FPSO emergency response arrangements. Gall Thomson provides application guidance on marine transfer protection, with an emphasis on considering last-resort hose separation protection. The correct solution depends on the terminal arrangement, the hose construction, the transferred medium and the operational risks.

FPSO floating and reeled transfer systems place different mechanical demands on coupling equipment. Hose stiffness, reel geometry, purging pressure and operational procedures should all be reviewed during design.

For more information about FPSO emergency response arrangements, read the Gall Thomson application guidance and contact the technical team to discuss the installation.
