Electric Ship-to-Ship LNG Emergency Release System (ERS)

摘要

Emergency Release Systems for ship-to-ship LNG hose transfers often rely on hydraulic pressure for motive power. As standalone systems they incur disproportionate complexly, und this is reflected in the equipment lifecycle costs. From an operator's perspective, hydraulic systems require continuous maintenance and are a potential source of leaks and spills. Growing applications for ship-to-ship transfer of LNG, LPG products and future fuels means there is scope for simple, all-electric alternatives.
