Production availability analysis of Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) systems
Applied Ocean Research, 2018Abstract Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) systems are currently the popular scheme in offshore oil and gas industry. The profitability of these systems is extremely dependent on their production availabilities. In this article, we report the lessons learned from the assessment of the production availability of a FPSO system ...

Painting Practices for Floating Production, Storage and Offloading Systems
SSPC 2011, 2011Abstract Floating production storage offloading (FPSO) system hulls physically resemble ocean going transport vessels but operate more like fixed offshore structures. FPSOs normally are moored in deep water and are connected to unique riser systems.

Experimental Study on the Hydrodynamics of a Floating, Production, Storage, and Offloading System
Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering, 2006This paper highlights an experimental investigation on the dynamic response of a typical floating, production, storage, and offloading system (FPSO) moored externally with a fixed structure and by a vertical anchor leg mooring arrangement. A 1:100 scale model of 140,000 t DWT FPSO system was tested for these two types of mooring arrangements under ...

Offshore Technology Conference, 1995
ABSTRACT The most unique feature of the new FLOATING JACKET concept is to place much of the needed buoyancy/ballast deep below the ocean surface. The deck and production equipment are supported by a jacket structure which is in turn erected on top of a huge buoyancy/ballast tank deeply submerged. This simple concept

The Floating Liquefied Natural Gas Production, Storage and Offloading Technology Research
Offshore Technology Conference-Asia, 2014The current status of the FLNG research project is introduced in this paper. Primary focus is placed on the six key technical areas which have been addressed in the phase I of this project, i.e. liquefaction process, LNG tank sloshing, single point mooring system, LNG tank selection and arrangement, LNG offloading and FLNG risk assessment. Firstly, the

Evolutionary Developments Advancing the Floating Production, Storage, and Offloading Concept
Offshore Technology Conference, 1982Abstract Tanker-based floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) systems have been in operation since August, 1977, when a single-well FPSO was put into production by Shell Espana in the Mediterranean. The overall operational experience with this system at this field will be reviewed.
