1 Getting to Grips with Offshore Handling and Assembly of Wind, Wave and Tidal Devices Greg Campbell-Smith, CEng, Beng, MIMechE, MIET Sales & Development Manager, First Subsea Ltd Mobile: +44 (0)

2 Who are First Subsea? Original Equipment Manufacturer Mechanical connectors Lifting tools Innovative design house Project management Standard and bespoke designs Technology proven in service Over 20 years offshore experience Privately owned Employing 50+ staff

3 Ball and Taper Technology Ball and taper connector: male mandrel / female receptacle Self aligning, self activating mechanical connection Friction / wedge locking Multi-point grip in proportion to load Quick and easy connection No release under load Fully scaleable design

4 First Subsea foundation connectors 2-riser handlingtools 3-case & drill pipe running tools 4-coil tube handling 5-subsea mooring connectors 6-pipeline recovery tools 7-floor slips 8-lifting tools 9-diverless bend stiffener connectors 10-buoy pull in tool 11-rope connector 12-emergency release connector

5 Oil & Gas Technology

6 For applications large and small

7 Installation Challenges Adverse environmental conditions Vessel restrictions and high vessel costs Requirements for regular connection/disconnection Cost/budgetary restrictions Installation windows - Tidal Minimal diving and ROV support Much focus has been on proving/improving designs and installation methods Press & Journal 20 May 2012 Illustrations for example only

8 Mooring Connectors Ball and taper connection: male mandrel / female receptacle Female receptacle pre-installed on pile Flexible two stage mooring system deployment Catenary and taut mooring configurations Self aligning, self activating mechanical connection Quick installation, typically 9 minutes from deployment

9 Offshore Handling Tools High risk, often complex operation Expensive, high cost of deployment vessels and weather dependent Health and safety risk to divers, especially in the splash zone Ball and taper provides Lean Installation of wind and wave devices Powerful grip, conforms to DNV Lifting Appliances Simple connection Quick connection

10 Cable Installation Windfarm cable connection: time consuming and weather dependent Optimum solution: Integrated design cable and connector Avoids the need for diver and ROV intervention Self aligning, self activating mechanical connection Increased weather window - quick, safe and easy installation Greater installation flexibility limited space, splashzone

11 Structural Connectors Adaptation of technology to suit offshore renewables requirements Large connectors for resisting high bending moments Installation without divers Complete connection within minutes Illustrations for example only

12 Foundation Connectors Integrated into foundation (pile, base structure) Self aligning Self activating Grip proportional to the load Articulates to reduce out of plane bending fatigue Subsea releasable High tensile loads

13 Polyester Rope Connector Fibre rope connector joint working development Smaller, lighter, stronger and more efficient than existing link type designs Easier make up shorter, slimmer rope splice construction than traditional eye and thimble Eliminates out-of-plane bending Flexible, safer and easier offshore assembly, running and retrieval Various configurations, incl. bespoke designs for tethers

14 Wire Rope Connector May be integrated into the structure of the hull or mounted separately Male element is a Spiral Strand Compact Tensile Steel Wire Grips radially uniformly distributing axial and hoop stresses Mechanism locks out automatically Mechanical intervention required to release Mechanism is free moving in +Z direction and locks out in Z Self locking, zero deck time connection. Simple design.

15 Engineered Solution Joint development programs, and FEED studies undertaken Conceptual and bespoke detail design Complete Engineering Service Design and Finite Element Analysis Fatigue Analysis Prototyping & Testing Installation & Operations Total Product Support

16 Solutions Offshore Renewables lifting devices (installation tools) nacelle-base connector (tidal turbines) base-pile connector mooring connectors tethers integrated mooring/electrical connector pin removal tools swivel connector tensioning tools quick disconnect/reconnect and through partnerships: strain gauge instrumentation wireless and acoustic communication plus many more possibilities Illustrations for example only If your application involves lifting, gripping, mooring or pulling, we have the technology you are looking for
