SMM '82 (continued from page 18) sored by the Deutsches Komitee fur Meeresforschung und Meeres- technik e.V. (German Committee for Marine Sciences and Ocean

Engineering), the Wirtschafts- vereinigung industrielle Meeres- technik e.V. (Marine Technology

Trade Association), and the Vere- inigung Deutscher Schiffsingen- ieure (Association of German

Marine Engineers). The congress has been organized by Hamburg

Messe und Congress GmbH.

Professor Dr.-Ing. C. Kruppa of the Technische Universitat Ber- lin, Institut fur Schiffs- und

Meerestechnik, is the congress chairman for Intermaritec '82.

A total of 92 papers will be presented during six sessions cov- ering the areas of offshore tech- nology, ice technology, oil pollu- tion abatement, coastal engineer- ing, marine research and ship technology.

Offshore Technology

Twenty five papers will be pre- sented during the session on off- shore technology.

Harmonic analysis procedures for dynamic nonlinear platform analysis will be discussed by M.J.

Mes of the Phillips Petroleum

Co., Bartlesville, Okla. Experts from COPPE/UFRJ of Brazil will present a paper on the dynamic analysis of fixed offshore struc- tures on the Brazilian coast.

Design problems and opera- tional risks of crane vessels is the subject of a paper by specialists from Germanischer Lloyd, Ham- burg.

The use of a semisubmersible platform as a (process-) meth- anol plant carrier will be treated by G. Laading, Norwegian Petro- leum Consultants, and G. Mein- hold, Chemische Werke Huls AG.

Experts from Linde AG will discuss problems encountered with the use of liquefaction plants onboard floating platforms.

H. Reimers of Siemens AG,

Oslo will explain the supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system for offshore ap- plications.

C. Kuo of the University of

Strathclyde, Glasgow, will discuss research into subsea maintenance of offshore structures.

The latest design aspects of and model test results for the RS 35 semisubmersible system will be presented by P. Bauer of

ERNO Raumfahrttechnik GmbH and G. Clauss from the Tech- nische Universitat Berlin.

A method for continuous con- trol of platform stability will be examined by A. Naess of the Nor- wegian Hydrodynamic Labora- tories.

K. Haverty of Det norske Ver- itas (Sidcup, Kent) and J.F. Mc-

Namara and B. Moran of the

University College, Galway, will present a talk on finite dynamic motions of articulated offshore loading towers.

Experts from RWTH Aachen and Ed. Zublin AG, Stutgart, will report on pilot tests with pre- stressed concrete pontoons (SEA-

DECK) as system elements in ocean engineering.

Scientists from AEG Tele- funken, Hamburg, will present talks on a subsea oil-loading sys- tem for tankers and on a dis- tance positioning system for off- shore supply vessels.

The effects of wave loads on vertical cylinders will be exam- ined by scientists from the Indian

Institute of Technology in Ma- dras, while German colleagues from the Technische Universitat

Berlin will describe simplified de- sign formulae for static and dy- namic structure analysis of deep- sea risers.

Two papers by German experts will discuss the press-butt weld- ing technique for pipelaying ac- cording to the J-method: H.

Langenberg of Blohm & Voss,

Hamburg, will present a system (continued on page 22)

The sinusoidal passages between Fram's patented oleophilic coalescer plates greatly enhance the gravity separation of oil and solids from shipboard bilge water. And the ultra-compact size of this Fram 2NP unitized system makes it the ideal choice for tugs, fishing fleets, crew boats and other small vessels.

Exceeding IMCO standards, the Fram 2NP processes 2 gallons per minute to purities of 15 ppm oil content or less. With no consumables and

D remarkably low maintenance requirements. High reliability plus lower operating costs result in significant cost efficiencies over the long term. In addition, Fram's advanced separator plate technology is readily adaptable to the retrofitting of existing, less efficient systems.

Add them all up — higher efficiency, smaller size, cost efficiency, retrofit capability and worldwide parts and service availability. It's easy to see why Fram's 2NP oil/water separator is the preferred choice. The clincher? Model 2NP is the "little brother" of the Fram

OPB-IONP unit already in widespread use on some of the largest vessels in the U.S. Navy.
