GMPHOM FLOAING AND SUBMARINE HOSES
OCIMF FLOAING AND SUBMARINE HOSES/OFFSHORE FLOAING AND SUBMARINE HOSES DESIGN SOLUTION: OUR CMBM(Conventional Multi-Buoy Mooring)
Gmphom floating and submarine hoses systems are typically used in water depths less than 80 meter, but more sophisticated designs are in service in deeper waters.
The buoy is typically spread moored to the seabed using a series of mooring chains. CMBM buoys include a 360° rotating turntable thereby allowing the moored vessel to freely weathervane around the buoy whilst moored to it. A series of floating hoses are used to connect the tanker manifolds to the buoy manifolds and a series of submarine hoses used to connect the buoy manifolds to the subsea PLEM in various configurations like:
Chinese Lantern, Lazy S, Steep S, etc.
Standards and Specifications
We design and produce GMPHOM/ocimf floating and submarine hoses in full accordance to OCIMF standards. These products are also subjected to manufacturing and testing requirements dictated by ISO 9000:2001 quality standards.
Electrical Continuity: A low resistance connection will be provide with a copper wire and helix steel wire.
Construction:
1. Inner layer: NBR compound synthetic rubber
2. Reinforcement: high tensile strength fabrics with helix steel wire
3. Cover: CR synthetic rubber
4. Ideal working temperature: -25 to 82℃
5. Safety factor: 5:1
Rated working pressure
These gmphom ocimf floating and submarine hoses have a RWP of at least 15 bar. 19 bar and 21 bar hoses are also available if specified by the customer. They are suitable for operation at an internal pressure from minus 0.85 bar to the RWP.
Flow Velocity
The linings of our gmohom ocimf floating and submarine hoses content are from elastomers and fabrics suitable for continuous operation at a flow velocity of 21m/s.
Resistance to Temperature, Oil products and Aging
The gmphom ocimf floating and submarine hoses are suitable for use with crude oil and liquid petroleum products from -20℃ to 82℃, and an aromatic hydrocarbon content no greater than 50% by volume.
The CMBM system holds the tanker in a spread moored arrangement. It is used worldwide, but generally in relatively shallow water depths and mild to moderate environmental conditions.
The seabed pipeline terminates close to the tanker mooring. A string of submarine hoses is laid out from the PLEM along the sea bed and recovered to the tanker for fluid transfer operations.
