BOOSTER STATIONS FOR 4-INCH SHIP-TO-SHORE FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEMS

Abstract

To extend the effective delivery range of the 4-inch buoyant and bottom-laid fuel delivery systems beyond the current 5OOO-foot capability, NCEL developed a diesel-driven booster station and tested a gas-turbine-driven booster station. This report describes the design, development, and comparative evaluation of the two units.
