Structural design of process decks for floating production, storage and offloading units

Marine Structures, 1998
This work analyzes the influence of ship motion and deformation on the structural design of decks to support production plants in floating production, storage and offloading units (FPSOs). These decks are space frames with lengths ranging from 30 to 100 mr, with a variable number of rigid supports linked to the ship hull.

Neural-network-based prediction of mooring forces in floating production storage and offloading systems

IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 2002
The paper explicates the development of a neural network based prediction of mooring forces of a deep-sea oil exploitation production process. The evolution of a neural network simulator for analysis of the dynamic behavior of a system consisting of a turret-FPSO (floating production storage and off loading) and a shuttle ship in tandem configuration ...
