SINGLE POINT MOORING SYSTEM PROVIDED WITH PRESSURE RELIEF MEANS

摘要

A single point mooring system (1) is provided with pressure relief means (17) for opening a passage between a flow line (8) for transferring liquids and a liquid collecting reservoir (16) when the liquid pressure in the flow line (8) reaches a predetermined critical value. A signal transmitter (19) is present for transmitting a signal to a signal receiver (21, 22) in response to detection by a detector (18) of the occurrence of said critical value. Furthermore flow control means (23, 24) are arranged in the flow line (8) for controlling liquid flow through the flow line (8) in response to the signal received by the signal receiver (21, 22).
