Subsea Riser Flexible Line Protection is an important consideration for subsea riser flexibles. Gall Thomson provides application guidance on marine transfer protection, with an emphasis on assessing emergency breakaway requirements for high-pressure flexible lines. The correct solution depends on the terminal arrangement, the hose construction, the transferred medium and the operational risks.

The Gall Thomson application guidance shows example arrangements for SPM, CBM, FPSO, FSO and FSU installations. Coupling positioning must be assessed for the full hose assembly and transfer conditions.

For more information about subsea riser flexibles, read the Gall Thomson application guidance and contact the technical team to discuss the installation.
