Fluid transfer installation

Abstract

Installation for transferring fluid between a fluid source, in particular a cryogenic fluid reserve and a receiving unit, in particular a boat reservoir, comprising a tower with a structure of the beam framework type, the tower comprising a fluid transfer circuit comprising a set of pipe(s) provided with a first pipe extending between a first lower end intended to be connected to a fluid source and a second upper end intended to be connected to a receiving unit, at least part of the transfer circuit situated between the first and second ends being housed within the volume delimited by the tower, characterized in that the tower is composed of at least two separable stacked modules allowing two different configurations of the tower respectively having different heights: a first configuration with the two stacked modules, and a second configuration with a single module, and in that the transfer circuit situated within the volume delimited by the tower comprises two sections situated respectively in the two modules, the two sections being connected to one another via a system of demountable connectors configured to make it possible to adapt the height of the transfer circuit to the two configurations.
