Timberland Equipment Limited is an industry leader in supplying innovative mooring and riser pull-in equipment solutions. Risers are the flow lines (either hoses or steel pipes) that transport oil from the ocean floor to the FPSO. Mooring systems are typically 16-point systems, consisting of 16 chains with 4 points at each corner of the vessel. The mooring chains, which are handled by chain jacks and underwater fairleads, have a 120 mm diameter (meaning the steel portion of each chain link is 120 mm in diameter), and each chain link is 720 mm high (28”). All offshore oil and gas projects have a certifying authority that oversees the engineering and manufacturing processes for the equipment we provide. Companies all over the world choose Timberland because of our proven experience. Whether it's the heaviest lift or high risk, you can count on Timberland Equipment to ensure a successful project completed safely and on-time.

🚀 Diving Deep into Tank Operations in the Oil & Gas Industry 🌍 Another day another module regarding oil and gas to learn and deep dive. Just finished delve into the intricate world of tank operations within the oil and gas sector. This area is crucial for ensuring the safe, efficient, and compliant storage and transportation of petroleum products, including LNG and crude oil. What i learned in this module? Maintenance & Inspection Protocols: Understanding the importance of regular tank inspections to maintain operational integrity is vital. Standards like API 650 and API 653 provide guidelines on welded tank construction, inspection, repair, and reconstruction. Inspections are meticulously planned to assess parameters such as differential settlement, plumbness, and shell plate condition, ensuring that tanks remain fit for service. Storage Tank Design: I explored various tank designs, including single-containment, double-containment, and hybrid tanks. Each design has specific use cases, balancing cost with safety, especially in the storage of cryogenic products like LNG. The choice between steel and concrete, along with the insulation methods, directly impacts the safety and efficiency of these storage solutions. Transportation Considerations: The movement of petroleum products, whether via pipelines, marine vessels, or trucks, requires careful consideration of factors such as product volatility, existing infrastructure, and environmental impact. The industry’s logistics are as complex as they are critical, with each mode of transport playing a vital role in the global supply chain. LNG Operations: Handling LNG, with its extremely low storage temperatures, presents unique challenges. From gas treating before liquefaction to regasification and transportation, every step demands precise control to prevent material brittleness and ensure safety. The importance of safety protocols, particularly in marine operations, cannot be overstated. Marine Receipt Procedures: The role of the Loading Master in overseeing marine receipt operations was another highlight. From initial planning to final inspections, the process involves rigorous checks and balances to maintain product quality and prevent losses. Stripping procedures and final inspections ensure that every drop is accounted for before a vessel sets sail. I’m excited to apply this knowledge in my future endeavors and continue contributing to the advancements in the oil and gas industry. Let’s connect and discuss how these insights could drive innovation and safety in our field! #OilAndGas #TankOperations #LNG #EnergyIndustry #SafetyFirst #EngineeringExcellence #MarineOperations #ProjectManagement

♦️Offshore oil rigs rely on advanced techniques for extracting oil from beneath the sea. The process includes: 1. 🔹Drilling: Advanced drilling equipment is used to drill wells into the seabed. Pipes are inserted into these wells to facilitate the flow of oil and gas. 2. 🔹Platforms:Offshore platforms provide secure work areas for personnel and host the necessary equipment for drilling and production. 3. 🔹Lifting System: Lifting systems are employed to raise heavy equipment and pipes from and to the sea surface. 4. 🔹Production: Oil and natural gas are extracted from the wells and transported to the water's surface through pipelines. The extracted oil undergoes processing to remove impurities and gases before being transferred for refining or shipping. 5. 🔹Environmental Safety: Strict measures are applied to preserve the marine environment and prevent oil spills. #OilExtraction #OffshoreOilRigs #DrillingTechnology #MarineEnvironment #MarineOilIndustry #SafetyInMarineOperations #MarineEnergy #OffshorePlatformConstruction #PetroleumExploration #UnderwaterDrilling

The world’s largest semi-submersible crane vessel, The Sleipnir, is currently at the Port of Walvis Bay. The semi-submersible crane installs and removes subsea equipment, decommissions and carries out heavy lifting operations in offshore oil and gas facilities. Sleipnir was constructed in 2019 and is owned and operated by Heerema Marine Contractors. Sleipnir, named after Odin’s eight-legged horse in Norse mythology, boasts two massive revolving cranes built by Huisman Equipment B.V., each with an impressive lifting capacity of 10,000 tons. These cranes can work in tandem, achieving a remarkable joint lift of 20,000 tons. The Singaporean Sembcorp Marine started constructing the vessel in 2015 and completed it in 2019. The vessel’s design deviates from traditional semi-submersible crane vessels, opting for a platform supported by eight symmetrical columns (four on each side) with streamlined pontoons. This innovative design minimises pitching in rough seas, enhancing stability. The ship’s ballast tanks and LNG storage are ingeniously integrated within these columns, each at an impressive height of 23.75 meters. Sleipnir’s cranes, supplied by Huisman, are mounted on tubs with an overall boom length of 144 meters. The slewing system, allowing the cranes to rotate, features the world’s most giant bearings at an astonishing 30 meters in diameter. This design choice ensures robust and efficient crane operation. The crane house is securely anchored to the foundation using an intricate arrangement of 1100 bolts, each exceeding 82mm in diameter, contributing to the vessel’s structural integrity. *Various sources

TechnipFMC, a global leader in subsea, onshore, offshore and surface technologies serving the energy sector approached Best Management Products Inc (BMP) with an application for their SNOUT water quality hoods in 2019. Juan Toro, P.E., a principal engineer at TechnipFMC, advised that their client, a major oil and gas company, was expanding a portion of its Gulf Coast industrial facility. For that project, a new drainage system was required, and that is where BMP learned of the challenge. Typically, the hoods are only installed over the outlet pipe of a sump style storm water structure, skimming off floatable pollutants and allowing heavier solids to sink. However, for this application, the hoods were needed on both the inlet and outlet pipes of the structures to isolate the pipe network from potentially flammable or explosive vapors and liquids.
