A system for transferring fluid across a boundary between a first body rotatively coupled to a second body, comprising:
- a first fluid conduit and a first utility conduit each disposed on the first body;
- a second fluid conduit and a second utility conduit each disposed on the second body;
- a swivel assembly comprising:
- a fluid swivel that defines a fluid path therethrough, comprising a fixed part rotatively coupled to a rotating part;
- a third fluid conduit in fluid communication with the fluid flow path defined by the fluid swivel;
- a utility swivel that defines a communications path therethrough, comprising a fixed part rotatively coupled to a rotating part;
- and
- a third utility conduit in communication with the communication path defined by the utility swivel;
- a first connector configured to connect the first fluid conduit and the fixed part of the fluid swivel to one another such that the first fluid conduit is in fluid communication with the fluid flow path defined by the fluid swivel;
- a second connector configured to connect the second fluid conduit and the third fluid conduit to one another such that the second fluid conduit is in fluid communication with the third fluid conduit;
- a first utility connector configured to connect the first utility conduit and the fixed part of the utility swivel to one another such that the first utility conduit is in communication with the communication path defined by the utility swivel;
- a second utility connector configured to connect the second utility conduit and the third utility conduit to one another such that the second utility conduit is in communication with the third utility conduit;
- a deployment frame configured to be coupled to the swivel assembly;
- and
- a plurality of coarse alignment guides, wherein:
- each coarse alignment guide comprises a first part and a second part configured to engage with one another,
- the first part of each coarse alignment guide is disposed on the second body,
- the second part of each coarse alignment guide is disposed on the deployment frame,
- when the first fluid conduit and the fixed part of the fluid swivel are connected to one another via the first connector and when the second fluid conduit and the third fluid conduit are connected to one another via the second connector, the first fluid conduit, the fluid flow path defined by the fluid swivel, the second fluid conduit, and the third fluid conduit maintain fluid communication with one another when the second body rotates relative to the first body, and
- when the first utility conduit and the utility swivel are connected to one another via the first utility connector and when the second utility conduit and the third utility conduit are connected to one another via the second utility connector, the first utility conduit, the communication path defined by the utility swivel, the second utility conduit, and the third utility conduit maintain communication with one another while the second body rotates relative to the first body.
