Petal Coupling Pump Opening Procedures is an important consideration for petal coupling control options. Gall Thomson provides application guidance on marine transfer protection, with an emphasis on considering opening the valves by pumping when supported. The correct solution depends on the terminal arrangement, the hose construction, the transferred medium and the operational risks.

Post-activation options described by Gall Thomson include fitting a blanking flange, draining hose contents to a vessel slop tank and arranging suitable connections to continue transfer operations.
