 Inner hose derived from composite hose
o Multiple layers of films and fabrics are trapped between two stainless steel wire helices
o Its convoluted shape results in a high flexibility even at cryogenic temperature
A continuous sleeve forms a tight barrier Film layers Outer wire
The sleeve prevents the liquid from penetrating the hose.
(This can collapse the hose when liquid changes to vapor.) Sleeve

7 March 2017
 Annulus insulation material
The annulus is filled with layers of 3D knitted fabric, combining:
o An orthotropic behavior
 Flexible even at cryogenic temperature
 High compressive stiffness
o A low density (< 200 kg/m3)
o A low thermal conductivity (0.07 W/m.K at 20°C, 0.03 m.K at -160°C)
o An open structure, making easier the annular volume blanketing
o A high resistance to compressive and bending fatigue

3D spacer fabric is wrapped in a double helix

A film covers each layer of fabric to stop natural convection

o DTS or Bragg Grating thermal sensing
o Leak detection & Cool down follow-up

Benefits

Combination of proven technologies!

8 March 2017
 Leak monitoring system
o Monitoring uses optical fibers, helically wound in the insulation annulus
o Fibers works as thermal sensors, seeking abnormal temperature change, caused by a leak
o 2 fibers are installed in separate tubing, as a redundancy

Two technologies can be used indifferently

Distributed Thermal Sensing (DTS) Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG)

o DTS is based on Raman diffusion o A periodic variation of refractive index in the fiber
o A nanosecond laser pulse is emitted through core reflects a specific wavelength
the fiber o The reflected wavelength depends on temperature
o A fraction of the pulse energy is diffused o One fiber can be fitted with 100 FBGs
o The diffusion intensity depends on
temperature

Trelleborg LNG loading & unloading system is an alternative that enhances:

 COST EFFECTIVE Up to 80% of cost reductions compared with

traditional transfer solutions

 EASY TO INSTALL 30% reduction of engineering, construction

and installation lead time

 SIMPLE TO OPERATE Significant OPEX savings compared with

traditional transfer systems

Cryoline LNG hose permits cost effective LNG loading/unloading systems for large
and small scale LNG projects. Unlike side-by-side LNG transfer solutions, this
solution enables to reduce lead-time, cost and terminal modifications with a plug-
