Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9833868A1] A system for remotely operating a vessel comprising: a closure transport for removing a vessel closure from an opening in the vessel; a joint connector with clamping means for sealing or unsealing the vessel; a removal system for allowing material to be emptied from the vessel. The clamping means comprising: a plurality of clamp segments, wherein the clamping segments have an energized state when storing energy and a free state when not storing energy, the energized state being associated with either a first position or second position, and the free state being associated with other; the clamp segments adapted for and conjoined by segment fastners, the segment fastners comprised of segment fastner elements, the segment fastners adapted to be lockable for storing energy within the clamp segments; the clamp segments conjoined such that the failure of any single segment fastner elements will not unconjoin the clamp segments or cause failure to the apparatus; one or more actuable powered drive members for applying energy to the clamp segments and adapted to energize at least a portion of the segment fastners.
