  • Patent number: 10144621
    Abstract: A method of operating a mobile crane with a boom includes the steps of determining maximum permissible loads for a plurality of positions in a predetermined position range of the boom, determining a load limit and/or one or more load ranges based on a suspended load and on the maximum permissible loads for the plurality of positions of the predetermined position range of the boom, and operating the mobile crane dependent upon the load limit and/or the one or more load ranges. The load limit can be a local load limit and the one or more load ranges can be one or more local load ranges.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9188499
    Abstract: A subsea retrievable pressure sensor for measuring fluid pressure at a well or other subsea fluid system. In one embodiment, a pressure sensor assembly includes a subsea pressure housing, a first pressure sensor, an electrical connector, a first hydraulic connector, and a latching mechanism. The first pressure sensor is disposed within the housing, and the electrical connector and first hydraulic connector are disposed in wall of the housing. The electrical connector is electrically coupled to the first pressure sensor to communicate electrical power though the housing to the first pressure sensor and to communicate pressure measurement values from the first pressure sensor through the housing. The first hydraulic connector is hydraulically coupled to the first pressure sensor to communicate hydraulic pressure to the first pressure sensor through the housing. The latching mechanism extends through the housing to secure the housing to a subsea receptacle.
