OMTS- Offloading Monitoring Telemetry System
OMTS- Offloading Monitoring Telemetry System allow UHF/VHF portable radio to Start / Stop a remote transfer of crude oil from the FPSO to the receiving tanker (or any vessel). This means the operators are no longer require to sit in the operation room to monitor/control the offloading process, but do it remotely everywhere in the vessel/ plant.
Background
The Norwegian Oil & Gas recommended guidelines for Offshore Loading Shuttle Tankers -Guideline No. 140 - page 16 describes the use of an offloading monitoring telemetry system - OMTS to safely transfer the production of crude oil from the FPSO to the receiving tanker. The transfer is authorized by the broadcast of a green line signal which is interlocked by both the FPSO & the receiving tanker.
concept
The OMTS is designed to integrate the exisiting FPSO transfer pumps control systems using a Motorola Remote Terminal Unit - ACE1000 and a couple of Motorola Radios. The ACE1000 is responsible to guarrantee the integrity of the radio link and shut the transfer in case of a loss of signal. For more information, please contact us directly.
