CA 2456554

The invention relates to a fluid transfer system, in particular for LNG in which an articulated vertical and horizontal mooring arm are suspended from a support on the processing vessel. Independently moveable ducts, for instance cryogenic hard piping are placed parallel to the mooring arms such that a transfer system is obtained in which is the mooring forces are insulated from the fluid transfer line with which rapid connection and disconnection is possible and which provides a large yaw resistance. In a preferred embodiment, the mooring system comprises two vertical arms connected to a triangular horizontal yoke attached to the bow of the LNG-carrier for improved yaw resistance.

L'invention concerne un système de transfert de liquide, notamment de gaz naturel liquide, dans lequel des bras d'amarrage articulés verticalement et horizontalement sont suspendus à un support disposé sur le navire de traitement. Des conduits déplaçables de façon indépendante, par exemple des tuyaux rigides cryogéniques, sont placés parallèles aux bras d'amarrage de telle façon qu'on obtienne un système de transfert dans lequel les forces d'amarrage ne soient pas répercutées sur les lignes de transfert, avec lesquelles il est possible de mettre en oeuvre une connexion et une déconnexion rapides, et qui offre une grande résistance en lacet. Dans une réalisation préférée, le système d'amarrage comprend deux bras verticaux connectés à un bras d'éloignement horizontal triangulaire, fixés à l'étrave du transporteur de gaz naturel liquide, afin d'obtenir une meilleure résistance en lacet.
