Abstract
A subsea filler line system adapted to transport different types of fluids in separate batches through one single supply conduit, or flexible line, from the sea surface to respective dedicated storage tanks, or vessels, installed on the seabed, is described. The system includes respective valves and control systems to operate the subsea filler line system. The subsea filler line system includes at least two pigs adapted to be pushed by the transported fluid through said supply conduit, or flexible line, which pigs further provide a barrier between the respective fluids in front of and behind each pig, thus being able to define respective fluid batches between following pigs, each fluid batch being directed by means of valves through an inlet into said supply conduit and an outlet from said supply conduit and further on to the respective dedicated storage tanks, or vessels, on the seabed. A method for transporting various fluids in separate batches through a master flow conduit is also disclosed.
