A system to pressurize barrier fluid of a submersible installation to provide a differential pressure between the ambient pressure surrounding the submersible installation and the pressure of the barrier fluid internally in the submersible installation during submersion of the system, wherein the differential pressure fits within a predetermined differential pressure range. The system comprises a pre-charge arrangement and a pressure intensifier which is adapted to start working at a start-up pressure. The pre-charge arrangement is adapted, during submerging of the system, to provide a differential pressure within the predetermined differential pressure range until the ambient pressure equals the start up pressure of the pressure intensifier, while the pressure intensifier is adapted to provide a differential pressure within the predetermined differential pressure range when the ambient pressure equals the start-up pressure of the pressure intensifier during further submersion of the system.

A system for transfer of liquefied natural gas (LNG) between two vessels ( ). The system comprises a coupling head ( ) mounted at one end of a flexible pipe means ( ) and arranged for attachment on a platform ( ) at one end of one vessel ( ) when it is not in use, and a connection unit ( ) mounted at one end of the other vessel ( ) and comprising a pull-in funnel ( ) shaped for guided pull-in of the coupling head ( ) to a locking position in which the pipe means ( ) can be connected to transfer pipes ( ) on the other vessel ( ) via a valve means ( ) arranged in the coupling head. The coupling head ( ) is provided with a guide means ( ) and is connected to at least one pull-in wire ( ) for guided pull-in of the coupling head ( ) into the connection unit ( ) by a winch means ( ) an the other vessel ( ).
