A fluid cargo handling system includes a marine manifold tower system and a floating marine platform on which is carried a liquid manifold assembly which is coupled to a cryogenic liquid transfer hose extending from the floating marine platform to the marine manifold tower system. The cryogenic liquid transfer hose is also connected to a cryogenic hose manifold assembly mounted on the marine manifold tower system. The marine manifold tower system includes an elongated tower having a first end secured to the seabed and a second end supporting the cryogenic hose manifold assembly, elevating the cryogenic hose manifold assembly above the water surface. The floating marine platform moves between a first position adjacent the marine manifold tower system and a second position, spaced apart from the marine manifold tower system, where the floating marine platform is in fluid communication with a fluid cargo transport vessel.

A method of processing a fluid produced from a well, the produced fluid being a high pressure fluid, the method comprising: reducing the pressure of the fluid to a reduced pressure such that a gas phase and a liquid phase are formed; separating the gas phase from the liquid phase thus forming a gas product and a liquid product; and storing the liquid product in a storage tank at a pressure such that the liquid product remains in a stable liquid phase during storage, wherein the reduced pressure is greater than atmospheric pressure.

A gas supply marine vessel and a refueling facility are described. The gas supply marine vessel includes a hull with an upper deck having an elongated cargo cavity formed therein. Gas interface modules are disposed in the cavity and extend between hull sides, each module having a plurality of fuel vessel docking stations. A plurality of stacked fuel container assemblies are fluidically coupled to the docking stations. A gantry, is movable along the length of the cavity, straddles the cargo cavity between hull sides. An articulating crane is mounted on the gantry and it utilized to move fuel container assemblies to a fuel container depression formed in the deck of a floating refueling facility. The floating refueling facility includes a concave side to facilitate mooring adjacent a shoreline, the concave side forming angled extensions at corners of the deck with a linkspan extending from each of the angled extensions.

The present invention relates to a container transportation ship. More particularly, the present invention relates to a container transportation ship for transporting containers, characterized in that a loading space in which at least one container is loaded and a loading/unloading space configured such that an external transfer means can directly enter/exit in order to load and unload the container, are delimited on the deck of the container transportation ship; and a crane is provided to move the container in the longitudinal direction of the container transportation ship, in the transverse direction thereof, and in the upward/downward direction thereof for the purpose of loading the container on the external transfer means that has entered the loading/unloading space or unloading the container from the external transfer means.

A raw water isolator for watercraft for providing treated fluid to loop of air conditioning units, freezers, ice makers, gyro stabilizers and the like systems. The raw water isolator provides a closed loop of treated fluid to prevent such systems from exposure to raw water known to contain biological material capable of fouling the units, and associated corrosion when salt water is used for the cooling mechanism. The apparatus employs a storage and expansion tank for holding a volume of fluid that is circulated through the marine units. A heat exchanger selected for ease of cleaning provides heat transfer between the cooling fluid and raw water.
