Resilient Bumper and Bumper System
The present disclosure describes a resilient bumper that comprises an arc-shaped spring member that extends from a first end to a second end along a spring axis and includes an impact surface arranged between the first and second ends; and a support member that includes an attachment interface that extends in parallel to the spring axis of the spring member and is configured to releasably engage the first and second ends of the spring member. A bumper system and a marine structure are also described.
Offshore Platform Comprising a Deck and a Docking Device, and Method for Transferring Personnel
An offshore platform device comprising a platform and a docking device which has a vertically oriented longitudinal axis (L) and is designed to be raised along its longitudinal axis (L) relative to the platform (3) into a transport position and to be lowered into an operational position, the docking device (4) having at its lower end at least one docking point (8a, 8b, 8c, 8d) which is accessible from a boat (11) in the operational position.
Pneumatic fender monitoring system
A pneumatic fender monitoring system is provided. Image data captured by using at least one of a front view imaging device that successively images an external shape in a front view of a pneumatic fender used disposed between a vessel and a vessel or a side view imaging device that successively images the external shape in a side view of the pneumatic fender is successively input into a control unit and successively displayed on a monitor, and the control unit determines, on the basis of the image data, whether an amount of deformation of the external shape of the pneumatic fender is within a preset tolerance range or outside of a preset tolerance range.
Marine Construction with Concrete Boat Landing Structure
The invention relates to a boat landing structure suitable for being used in a marine construction, wherein said marine construction comprises, essentially, a concrete shaft intended for being installed anchored at a depth level with respect to the water level, and wherein said boat landing structure comprises two substantially vertical and parallel ribs, integrated in the shaft of the marine construction and projecting out from same, wherein said ribs are made partially or entirely of concrete. Likewise, the space comprised between said ribs houses an access ladder suitable for being used by personnel accessing the marine construction from an operation boat. The invention also relates to a marine construction and a segment comprising the mentioned boat landing structure.
MARINE FENDER
Marine fender for impact protection comprising a core of closed cell foam, wherein said core comprises at least one chamber substantially entirely surrounded by said closed cell foam and enclosing an elastically deformable closed object. The marine fender can comprise an intermediate layer that at least partly encloses the core and/or a coating that at least partly covers the intermediate layer.
Pneumatic Fender Monitoring System
A pneumatic fender monitoring system is provided. Image data captured by using at least one of a front view imaging device that successively images an external shape in a front view of a pneumatic fender used disposed between a vessel and a vessel or a side view imaging device that successively images the external shape in a side view of the pneumatic fender is successively input into a control unit and successively displayed on a monitor, and the control unit determines, on the basis of the image data, whether an amount of deformation of the external shape of the pneumatic fender is within a preset tolerance range or outside of a preset tolerance range.
DAMPENING PILE GUIDE FOR FLOATING DOCK
Example embodiments of the invention generally relate to a dampening and impact absorption device including a first component, a second component, and at least one elastomeric element operatively coupled between the first component and the second component. Other example embodiments of the invention generally relate to a dampening and impact absorption system including one or more such dampening and impact absorption devices. In example applications, the dampening and impact absorption device is utilized to dampen and reduce impacts, forces and noise between the platform and anchor pilings of a floating dock system, for example resulting from wave action or other dynamic effects.
Offshore structure, fender device for offshore structure, and method for moving toward structural body constituting offshore structure
A base supporting an offshore wind power generator includes a fender portion composed of a pair of cylindrically shaped first fender portion and second fender portion for cushioning an impact when a ship touches the fender portion, and rung portions extending horizontally from the fender portion toward the base and composed of first rung portions and second rung portions installed at predetermined intervals in the vertical direction. A worker on board the ship can safely transfer to the adjacent rung portions when the hull of the ship kept touching the fender portion.
Dampening pile guide for floating dock
