A system includes a coil contacting base. The coil contacting base includes a radially curved outer surface with a radius of curvature less than or equal to a coil radius of curvature of an interior channel of a coil of spoolable pipe, and the coil contacting base includes a length greater than or equal to an axial dimension of the coil. The system also includes a side wall coupled to an inner surface of the coil contacting base. The side wall is configured to block circumferential movement of a coil restraint. The system also includes a passage disposed between the coil contacting base and the side wall. The coil restraint is configured to be disposed in the passage.

This invention provides a method and apparatus for transporting marine fuel by rail car directly to a fueling vessel, by loading rail cars loaded with marine fuel onto a specially equipped roll-on/roll-off rail barge and transporting the barge by towboat to a mooring, where it is moored/secured in position, after mooring the barge will have the capability for offloading marine fuel from its rail cars via a barge-included distribution system to fuel a vessel. The barge may operate and be regulated as a fuel terminal when secured to the mooring.

The offshore jack-up has a hull and a plurality of moveable legs engageable with the seafloor. The offshore jack-up is arranged to move the legs with respect to the hull to position the hull out of the water. The method comprises securing the vessel with respect to the hull of the offshore jack-up when the hull is positioned out of the water and the legs engage the seafloor. A lifting mechanism mounted on the offshore jack-up engages with a cargo carrying platform positioned on the vessel. The platform is lifted with the lifting mechanism between a first position on the vessel and a second position clear of the vessel.
