The business now known as Woodfield Systems Limited started trading in 1922 and has been designing and manufacturing Marine Loading Arms since 1954. At that time, the Company was known as Woodfield Rochester Limited and although (in  common with many other companies) there have been two changes of name since those days, the company  can demonstrate a continuous record of design, manufacture and service directly back to that first installation.

Manually operated arms can be supplied with attachment brackets for the later addition of hydraulic operations. Operational limiting controls and other warning devices are available as optional extras.

Woodfield Arms, although normally fixed in one jetty position, can be mounted on movable trailers or rail tracks to provide dockside flexibility.

Several types of quick connect/disconnect couplings are available for the full range of Loading Arms. An emergency disconnect coupling is also available as an operator initiated device or as part of a sequence controlled “shut down” disconnect-system.

Both ambient and cryogenic swivel technologies are well proven within the industry and Woodfield’s swivels have surpassed expectations in OCIMF testing and the LNG swivel has excelled in life cycle testing. Our designs are currently being used for offshore loading systems within the Aker Kvaerner Group and other
companies in the market place.
