Marine Loading Arm - B0300

Our B0300 Marine Loading Arm has been designed for any application where it is essential to keep the product pipe consistently the same size for either economical or technical reasons, e.g. cryogenic products down to -168 °C, piggable systems and PTFE-lining.

This design has proven its reliability for many years.

The B0300 design includes a special support structure for the standpost, inboard and outboard arm and separates any mechanical loads imposed to the product pipe, except the dead-weight and internal pressure loads.

Additionally this provides optimum operational safety aspects, low weight of the arm and lowest wind loads imposed on the jetty structure.

Balancing of the arm is achieved by a rigid link pantograph system with independent counterweights directly linked to the inboard and outboard arm. This ensures accurate balance throughout all maneuvering and connecting positions.

The advantages over hose loading facilities are:

  • Ease of handling
  • Higher availability/ flexibility
  • Less man power and minimum maintenance
  • Maximum operational safety and minimized operational cost (cost of ownership)
  • The B0300 is designed for hydraulic operation and can be fitted with the most sophisticated ancillary equipment.
  • Range alarm system 
  • Drainage connections 
  • Emergency release system (ERS) 
  • Hydraulic operation 
  • Hydraulic or manual quick coupler 
  • Insulation flange 
  • Nitrogen purge line 
  • Drain line 
  • Vacuum breaker 
  • Fully balanced with independent counterweights for inboard and outboard arm  
  • Special support frame to reduce imposed mechanical loads  
  • Lightweight design  
  • Swivel joints either welded-in or flanged  
  • For transfer of mineral oil, chemicals, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and High-Pressure Natural Gas (HPNG)  
  • Seals available in Buna-N, Viton, PTFE or other specific materials  
  • Piggable product pipe  
  • Dedicated material for the product pipe  
  • PTFE or Rubber lining possible.
