 Development of an Active Mass Damper for Stabilizing Loads Suspended on a Floating Crane
Category:
Dredge Plant
Safety Procedures
Description:
The Shirashima Oil Storage Terminal is a floating offshore tank yard for storing 5.6 million kl of
crude oil. The eight storage vessels are shielded from sea waves by breakwaters.
Verification tests at sea on actual floating crane equipment with an active mass damper system
confirmed that actuation of the system would reduce to roughly 1/2 the oscillation of sling frame.
These results contributed to the ease and safety of the caisson shackling operation under the
wave forces.
