FPSO Midship Tanker Manifold Protection is an important consideration for tanker midship manifold connections. Gall Thomson provides application guidance on marine transfer protection, with an emphasis on planning hose protection at the transfer interface. The correct solution depends on the terminal arrangement, the hose construction, the transferred medium and the operational risks.

In FPSO service, a passive Marine Breakaway Coupling can provide last-resort protection when an export tanker moves unexpectedly or when a severe pressure surge occurs. Selection should account for the specific hose and offloading design.
