Flexible products require fewer subsea connections, making the carousel the practical alternative for continuous deployment with significantly reduced operational costs.
The carousel is designed to offer flexibility. A 12m-reel diameter and variable hub diameter means that it can handle multiple products and meet the full range of client needs. The AQCS-01-1500 can handle product loads of up to 1500Te, operates at a maximum speed of approximately 1km per hour and uses a built-in tensioner with a maximum line pull of 5Te to maintain product tension. The tensioner is mounted on a level-wind tower, which ensures proper spooling on and off the carousel.
Unlike other options on the market, the AQCS-01-1500 is genuinely modular and can be broken down to components that fit in standard, 12-m shipping containers and are easily reconstructed without welding.
