摘要：A device for providing information on the positioning of a moveable couplingwhich is located on a movable end of a fluid transfer line of a marine loading system and

is adapted for connection to a target duct, the other end of the fluid transfer line beingfixed to a base. The device comprises a first apparatus for providing information on thepositioning of the coupling. The first apparatus is positioned on the coupling or on amember Immediately neighboring the coupling and includes a first GPS device whichprovides information on the absolute positioning of the coupling in space. The devicecomprises a second apparatus adapted to cooperate directly with the first apparatus andprovides information on the positioning of the base. The second apparatus is disposed onthe base or on a member immediately neighboring the base and provides, on the basis ofthe information on the positioning of the base and the information on the positioning ofthe coupling, information on the relative positioning of the coupling directly relative tothe base. Alternatively, the first means is adapted to provide information on the absolutepositioning of the coupling in space, the base has a fixed position in space, and the devicecomprises a calculator for calculating, on the basis of the information on the absolutepositioning of the coupling and data on positioning of the base, information on therelative positioning of the coupling directly relative to the base.
