In the busy operation of the port, the dock hose is responsible for transporting petroleum products from the dock to the tanker, or from the tanker to the dock. It is like a key link in the port's oil transportation, ensuring that oil products can be transmitted safely and efficiently.
The dock hose is designed for this specific scenario of transferring petroleum products between ships and shores. Its construction fully considers the complexity of the use environment and the characteristics of the transported medium. In terms of materials, the lining of the hose is usually made of materials that can withstand corrosion from various hydrocarbons to ensure that the pipe body will not be corroded when in long-term contact with various petroleum products, thereby maintaining good transportation performance. The reinforcement is made of elastomer reinforced with multi-layers of high tensile textile cords and embedded steel wire helix, which not only gives the hose sufficient pressure resistance so that it can withstand a certain conveying pressure. It also enhances its flexibility, allowing it to bend flexibly in the complex connection and operation environment between the dock and the tanker to adapt to different installation and usage requirements. The cover is generally wear-resistant and weather-resistant, and can resist the friction and external factors in daily operation, thus extending the service life of the hose.
The application of dock hoses is mainly concentrated in the loading and unloading operations of various petroleum products in seaports. At the dedicated docks of petrochemical enterprises, dock hoses transport refined oil products from the storage tank area to the tankers waiting to be loaded. It also plays an important role in the connection operation between tankers and barges, enabling the transfer of petroleum products between ships of different sizes.
It should be clear that although dock hose performs excellently in port oil transportation, it is not suitable for offshore or submarine applications. The complexity and variability of the offshore environment, such as the impact of waves, corrosion from seawater, and large pressure changes, places fundamentally different requirements on transportation equipment than on the dock environment. Submarine applications require the equipment to have special pressure resistance, corrosion resistance, and connection and laying methods that are compatible with the submarine pipeline system. CDSR specializes in supplying oil hoses suitable for such scenarios, including floating oil hoses, submarine oil hoses, catenary oil hoses, seawater uptake hoses and other products, which can fully meet the diverse needs of offshore and underwater operations.
