A system that includes a marine vessel with a vaporizer skid disposed on the marine vessel. The vaporizer skid is configured to convert a liquid to a gas. The system further includes a first tank disposed on the marine vessel that is configured to store the liquid. The system further includes a plurality of header modules disposed on the marine vessel. The plurality of header modules form a piping network that provide a first flow path from the first tank to the vaporizer skid and a second flow path from the vaporizer skid to a connective interface. The connective interface is configured to provide a flow path from at least one of the plurality of header modules to an end-user system.

A motorized support device for a handling system intended to handle at least one flexible pipe for transferring fluid; the support device comprises: a frame, a support borne by the frame, the support having an upper support surface for supporting the flexible pipe on the frame, and a drive member borne by the frame and able to drive the flexible pipe in two-way translation in a predetermined longitudinal direction.

A sea hose load analyzer system is disclosed. The sea hose load analyzer system also includes a transceiver interface. The sea hose load analyzer system also includes a memory storage. The sea hose load analyzer system also includes circuitry may include one or more processors configured to: receive load information of one or more sea hoses as node unit data via the transceiver interface, store the load information in the memory storage, and monitor additional node unit data via the transceiver interface.

One general aspect includes a buoy position analyzer system. The buoy position analyzer system also includes a transceiver interface. The buoy position analyzer system also includes a memory storage. The buoy position analyzer system also includes circuitry may include one or more processors configured to: receive node unit data via the transceiver interface, generate an operational movement envelope for a buoy based on the received node data, store the operational movement envelope in the memory storage, and monitor additional node unit data via the transceiver interface.

A method of maintaining positioning between vessels includes monitoring a relative position between a storage tank vessel and a shuttle tanker with a control system in operative communication with the vessels. Also included is inputting physical property data relating to the storage tank vessel and the shuttle tanker to the control system. Further included is processing environmental condition data with the control system. Yet further included is controlling at least one positioning action to be taken by the storage tank vessel and the shuttle tanker with the control system in response to positioning calculations conducted by the control system based on the physical property data and the environmental condition data. Also included is maintaining an angular differential within a predetermined limit with the at least one positioning action.

A transfer arm for a fluid product includes a transfer pipe having sections linked by fluid-tight articulations and an end provided with a device for connecting the pipe to a target duct. A support structure for the pipe has an inner branch mounted on a base and an outer branch suspended from the inner branch by an articulation assembly. The articulation assembly enables rotation of the outer branch around vertical and horizontal axes and is positioned between first and second ends of the outer branch. The first end is provided with a counterweight for balancing parts of the outer branch that are situated on opposite sides of the horizontal rotational axis. The arm also has a disengageable device for actuating the rotations of the outer branch around the horizontal and vertical axes and a flexible link which suspends the pipe, upstream of the device, from the second end of the outer branch.
