FPSO Protective Coupling Configuration is an important consideration for FPSO floating and reeled hoses. Gall Thomson provides application guidance on marine transfer protection, with an emphasis on choosing an arrangement appropriate to operating conditions. 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 floating and reeled hoses, read the Gall Thomson application guidance and contact the technical team to discuss the installation.
