Abstract: A system has a riser and a termination body, the termination body being arranged to connect at least one first conduit arranged along the riser and at least one second conduit extending from the riser to a drilling rig, where the termination body has a first clamp body and a second clamp body arranged for mutual joining and radial enclosure of a portion of the riser, and at least one receptacle block for connecting the at least first conduit, where the portion of the riser is unsplit. A method for connecting the termination body to the riser is also disclosed.

Abstract: A crane system is for a cantilever belonging to a jack-up rig. The crane system has a crane with a suspension member, the suspension member being arranged over the crane. A skid beam is attached to a lower portion of the cantilever, the skid beam being displaceably connected to a plurality of slides arranged on the jack-up rig, the crane hanging on the skid beam. A method is for using the crane system.

Abstract: A connection device has a first connection body and a second connection body movable with respect to the first connection body. The connection device is configured for connecting a plurality of control lines terminating in connectors forming part of the first connection body, to corresponding control lines terminating in connectors forming part of the second connection body. The connection device is provided with a first alignment means for rough alignment of the connection bodies. The connection device further has a second alignment means for aligning the rigid holding means of one of the bodies with respect to the connectors of the other one of the bodies, at least one of the rigid holding means movable in a plane perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the first alignment means.

Abstract: A connector device for kill- and choke lines between a riser and a floating drilling platform includes a slip joint on top of the riser including an outer barrel, a kill- and choke manifold arranged on the platform and provided with flexible kill- and choke hoses to the slip joint's outer barrel, and wherein the slip joint's outer barrel is provided with a horizontally directed kill- and choke-manifold.

Abstract: An improved high speed magnetic tape duplicator incorporates superior features from both thermomagnetic and anhysteretic processes to increase productivity in operating economics. Starting with a basic transport configuration of existing thermomagnetic equipment, the heating and cooling facilities are removed along with the non-magnetic transfer drum, and replaced with a magnetizable drum assembly and bias-field head suitable to anhysteretic duplication. Provisions are also added to correct tension errors so as to minimize skew and the transport control electronics are preferably replaced with a personal computer-based controller capable of furnishing additional functional capabilities including production reporting. Optionally, the master-tape loop-bin chamber is also specially modified with electrically ground static-control provisions.
