Ways to improve marine hose reliability

Marine hoses play an important role in marine engineering. They are usually used to transport fluids between offshore platforms, ships and coastal facilities. Marine hoses are crucial to ensuring the development and protection of marine resources and maritime safety.  

CDSR marine hoses meet industry standards and are certified by third parties such as DNV and BV. Marine hoses are required to undergo rigorous certification and testing to ensure their suitability. CDSR inspectand testhoses prior to shipment to ensure they are reliable and safe to use. 

Here are some ways to improve the reliability of marine hoses: 

Do a good job in the design and planning phase: Make sure that the design and planning of the hose is suitable for the environment and operating conditions, including water flow, pressure, temperature and climate.

Select the appropriate material: The materialsuitable for the offshore environment should be selected according to the specific application scenario and transported medium, so as to ensure that the hose has good performance under harsh sea conditions.

Regular inspection and maintenance: Regular maintenance and inspection of marine hoses is an important link to ensuring the reliability of hoses. Make a corresponding maintenance plan and carry out hose cleaning, inspection and maintenance on a regular basis. Check the hose for cracks, wear, aging or corrosion, and take timely measures to repair the damaged part, so as to prolong the service life of the hose.

Use high-quality anciliary equipment: Professional and suitable hose supporting equipment can well adapt to various sea conditions and operating conditions, and improve the connection reliability and sealing of hoses.

Monitoring and warning system: An effective, robust and reliable, integrated leak detection and indication system is provided on all the CDSR Double Carcass Hoses, the leak detector attached or built into the Double Carcass Hoses will signal through colour indicator, light or other forms in case there is any leakage occurred on the primary carcass. Such leak detection and indication system will enable users to check the status of double carcass hoses in service so as to reduce the safety risks of the hose strings.

Installation and operation: During the installation process, the operation norms should be strictly followed to ensure the correctness and rationality of the hose installation. When using hoses, avoid incorrect usage such as excessive stretching, twisting and deformation of the hose.

Operator training: Improving the reliability of marine hoses is not just a matter of technology, it also requires qualified operators. Training operators to understand the correct use of hoses, safe operating procedures and emergency measures can reduce the risk of accidents caused by misoperation.
