Cryogenic distance transfer enabling flexible LPG solutions
Typical configurations
STS: Tanker to tanker - Tanker to Shore terminal
Floating: Tanker to tanker - Tanker to SPM - Tanker to FPSO - Tanker to Shore terminal
Submarine: Tanker to Shore terminal - Tanker to PLEM
- The lightest LPG hose on the market: enabling easy handling and installation
- Proven 20-year track record in delivering efficient solutions to several operations
Operational advantages
- 200% tensile strength increase compared to alternatives due to steel cords used only for reinforcement.
- Highest flexibility on the market delivering less stress and longer life.
- Virtually no permeation product loss through the hose wall.
- Integrated gaskets for easy assembly and reliability.
- Integrated bending stiffener with smooth bending for efficient steel flange connections e.g. PLEM and J pipe.
- Compact flange eliminates stress concentration in bending due to short cantilever arm.
Specification summary
- Cryogenic transfer of butane, propane and propylene and mixes of these liquefied gases from -50°C to +70°C.
- Flexible bonded hose construction.
- Continuous inner liner prevents contact between fluid and structural components of the hose.
- Ultra-low permeation inner liner avoids entrapped gas in hose structure and enables removal of the bleeding device: delivering significant long-term benefits.
- Outer cover resistant to weathering, sea, abrasion and hydrocarbons.
- Textile reinforcement increases cover strength and stops propagation of any crack in the event of damage.
- Reinforced structure with steel cable layers and steel rings for lighter weight radial strength.
Standards and verifications
- GMPHOM 2009 certified
- Complemented by additional LPG dedicated tests. Contact the Trelleborg Team for more information.
