OIL & MARINECOMPANY BROCHURE

The Manuli Hydraulics Oil & Marine Division manufactures and sells floating, sub-sea marine hoses and elastomeric

pipelines for commercial use.

A long history in Oil and Marine field service

Established in 1935 Manuli Rubber Industries entered the Oil & Marine sector in 1973 with the establishment of a joint venture with Uniroyal, the pioneers of floating and submarine hose

systems as applied to single point mooring terminals that are employed extensively around the shores of the world today.

Following the formation of this joint venture and in keeping with MRI’s commitment to the indus-try amodern hose production facility was established at Ascoli Piceno in Italy. Equipped to carry out pressure, vacuum, bend, and kerosene testing all hoses manufactured in Ascoli are tested fol-lowing the Oil Companies International Marine Forum specification 5th Edition 2009 with results logged on the client’s test certificate.

In addition to the marine hose, Manuli Rubber Industries has also pioneered long length elasto-meric hose as dynamic risers, seabed flowlines, conventional buoy mooring hose strings, and many others.

In 1994 MRI developed an improved double carcass hose - the dual anti-pollution safety hose (D.A.S.H.) - for environmentally sensitive and harsh service areas. In the same year, it launched an advanced leak alarm system for use with the floating and submarine D.A.S.H.

Further developments include the long length elastomeric conduit system for exporting crude oil in extended well tests offshore and rapid deployment ship-to-shore fuelling systems for the U.S. Department of Defence and British Ministry of Defence.

More recent innovations include development of the LPG hose - second generation - compliant toBS EN 1762 standard, plus the Poseidon, Nautilus, Saturn and Triton ranges, all approved to GM-PHOM 2009:

■ 2012-15 Poseidon (steel cord reinforced) and Nautilus (textile cord reinforced) single and dou-ble carcass hoses.

■ 2015 Saturn long length “Heavy Duty” hoses. ■ 2019 Triton hoses with helix free construction.

Single and Double Carcass Floating and Submarine HoseManuli floating and submarine hoses are available with either single or double carcass structures, and in a wide range of configurations and pressure ratings. All Manuli marine hoses are manufactured and tested according to GMPHOM 2009 rules.

Failure Alert Device (FAD)All Manuli Double

Carcass hoses are provided with a leak detection system. When a leak occurs the fluid that escapes from the primary carcass triggers the FAD, which indicates that a failure has occurred. The Manuli FAD consists of a stainless steel base covered with a clear plastic lens and is protected by a Stainless Steel Cage. All components are mechanical, so no electrical supply is required.

Ancillary Equipment Manuli also offers a wide range of ancillary equipment aimed at ensuring the proper connection of tankers, manifolds, floating hose configurations and submarine hose layouts.These include chains, valves, floats, flanges and many other item

Long Length Elastomeric Hoses Exclusively made by Manuli, Long Length hoses are bonded elastomeric conduits for dynamic riser, jumper, flowline and medium/heavy duty CALM buoy applications.

LONG LENGTH - ELASTOMERIC HOSES

Exlusively made by Manuli, Long Length hoses are bonded elastomeric conduits for dynamic riser, jumper, flowline applications.

Lightweight, collapsible and kinkable, the Manuli Long Length are ideal for fuel trans-fers applications in the commercial and military fields.

KEY FEATURES:

■ WIDE RANGE OF CONFIGURATIONS based on sizes (4”, 6” and 8”), lengths (hundred me-ters, limited only by logistics and transportation), pressure ranges (up to 200 BAR) and safety factors, fluid types and transfer temperatures (up to 150°C), end terminations and mid-string low profile snag-free connections.

■ FAST TO DEPLOY AND RETRIEVE with minimum installation and handling equipment re-quired in the field.

■ KINK RECOVERABLE HOSE it recovers its original shape without any damage or permanent deformation.

■ HIGH ELASTICITY, when a tensile load is applied to the Manuli conduit all the layers elongate and neck down together and then rebound uniformly when the load is removed.

■ EXTENSIVE TRACK RECORD with hundreds of hoses in the field testifying to the quality, reli-ability and ease-of-use of the Manuli design.

■ COMPETITIVENESS AT COMMERCIAL ASSESSMENT when compared to similar bonded solutions in multiple shorter sections and to unbonded flexible pipes.

ACCESSORIES FOR TURN KEY PROJECTSTo provide a comprehensive solution for turn key projects the Manuli Oil and Marine range incorporates a wide range of accessories and ancillary equipment allowing optimal configuration of hose strings and pipelines..

DESIGN AND FIELD SERVICES

■ PRODUCT DESIGNManuli Oil and Marine offer both standard and custom products all supported by a local R&D team offering a full range of technical support, including: materials development and testing, product design, stress analysis and FEA.

■ PRODUCT TESTINGWithin our Ascoli Piceno factory we are able to perform a wide range of product testing with equipment for: burst, stiffness, vacuum, buoyancy and electrical testing along with combined tensile, twist fatigue test equipment for both empty and pressurised hoses. Further specialist testing is available via our long-standing relationships with international labs providing capabilities such as Thermal conductivity, axial bending and torsion testing.

■ SOFTWARE SIMULATION OF SYSTEM OPERATIONUsing world leading software for static and dynamic analysis of hose systems Manuli engineers are able to model system performance in a range of offshore environmental scenarios to allow configuration optimisation of both floating and submarine hose strings.

■ FIELD SERVICEOil & Marine service engineers provide our customers with technical and product support at every step from installation through to repair and requalification of used hoses, they are also able to provide field or factory-based training.

■ SERVICE LIFE MONITORINGTo ensure optimum performance Manuli Oil and Marine provide additional services for service life monitoring including return to factory testing and material analysis.

Tensile, Twist, Fatigue Test (Empty and Pressurized Hose)

When you partner with the Manuli you can be assured of the support you need from initial product design through field services to whole life product monitoring.
