Abstract: A marine deflector handling system includes a seismic survey vessel with a deflector towing sheave with a towing line to a seismic deflector bridle block. The bridle block includes, as counted from its outer end to its inner end: two triple head arms with each its triple head in their outer ends for fore and aft sets of bridle lines to a deflector, wherein said triple head arms in their inner ends are coupled together in a hinge bearing block which further holds an outer end of a grip adapter stem, wherein said grip adapter stem in its opposite, inner end is provided with a grip adapter axle block with a transverse through extending and protruding grip adapter axle arranged for being gripped by a crane jaw, wherein said grip adapter axle further holds an outer end of a sheave block stem with an inner end provided with a sheave block for said towing line.

Abstract: A method and device for temporarily coupling of a hose to a pipe system, where a first coupling part is connected to the hose, and a second coupling part is connected to the pipe system, where both the first and second coupling part comprises valves that automatically closes when said first and second coupling parts are not connected to each other, wherein said first and second coupling part are brought into interaction with each other to establish a tight connection before the valves in the coupling parts are opened and where the coupling parts are locked to each other.

Abstract: Method for transfer and connection operation of a bulk hose between a vessel and an offshore drilling or operating platform, the system comprising a hose, means for storage of the hose onboard the platform and connecting means onboard the vessel for secure connection of the hose to the ship, wherein a forerunner connected to the hose end to be connected to the ship brought into interaction with a catching device connected to the connecting means, and the forerunner is pulled in to bring the connector at the end of the hose into interaction with the connector in the connecting means, is described. A device for performing the method and part of the system are also described.
