senting IMODCO's first specially
designed commercial, lightweight
buoy, is for operation offshore
Tanjung Paser, Indonesia. It will
moor tankers up to 35,000 dwt,
discharging jet fuel to an onshore
booster station and storage facility.
The terminal will be supplied
with two 12-inch-diameter float-
ing hoses and two 16-inch-diame-
ter pig launchers located in oppo-
site access chambers of the buoy
hull. Pigs will be inserted into the
launchers and fluid originating
from a moored tanker pushes them
through the SPM terminal cargo
system toward shore.
The India Oil Company contract
is for a replacement buoy for an
SPM currently operating in the
Vadinar Field, Gulf of Kutch, in
northwest India.
Capable of mooring tankers up
to 300,000 dwt, the India Oil off-
shore terminal has been designed
with extra shell thickness and
self-installation features and in-
corporates hydraulic actuation for
the pipeline end manifold (PLEM).
Hoses, chains and hawsers already
existing at the site will be utilized.

Yes. By storing all ship's data files on a single disk,
a shoreside IBM®PC computer may be used for
performing calculations for all ships in your fleet.
For the record, the input data for a specific load-
