FPSO Environmental Risk Management [PDF]
Proceedings of SPE International Conference on Health, Safety and Environment in Oil and Gas Exploration and Production, 2010 Abstract Oil companies planning to locate FPSOs (or FSOs) in shallow water need to consider the performance of such operations relative to environmentally sensitive coastal habitats. This paper is based on a global study Battelle performed on FPSO safety performance and, in particular, with respect to risk management of nearshore ...

FPSO Integrity: JIP on FPSO Fatigue Loads
Offshore Technology Conference, 2000Abstract The hull forms used for FPSOs and trading tankers look very similar. So similar in fact that it may appear that one could use the same design and design methods for both vessels. Both vessels will be subject to extreme and fatigue loading and both will have a similar design life.

SS: FPSOs and Floating Production Systems: Implementation of the Monitas system for FPSOs
Offshore Technology Conference, 2010ABSTRACT This paper is one of five papers presenting research results from the Monitas Joint Industry Project (JIP). The name Monitas stands for Monitoring Advisory System. The project has developed the Monitas system that presents, explains and advises on the fatigue lifetime consumption of FPSO hulls.

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 1999
Abstract A review of trends in floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) technology is presented, using an extensive database of past, current and planned developments around the world. The review commences with the first FPSOs in the mid-1970s, explores the stimuli for FPSO development in Asia, in particular, over the next two ...

FPSO Conference—Estimating Wind-Sea and Swell for FPSO Operability
Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, 2005The motion response of an FPSO is sensitive to the relative intensities and directions of the wind-sea and swell components in a sea state, and the operability of the FPSO is a function of the long-term variation in these components. Estimations of the operability are therefore dependent both on how the sea state is described in terms of its ...

Floating protection system for FPSO
International Journal of Computer Applications in Technology, 2012Several Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels have been converted from large oil tanker ships with single skin side hulls. Safety measures have been evaluated to avoid excessive risks due to collision with supply vessels. Possible environment damage due to oil spill could be prevented by the installation of physical barriers close ...

Abstract Green Water Loading in the bow region of a Floating Production Storage and Offloading unit (FPSO) in head sea waves is studied by numerical means. A 2-D method satisfying the exact nonlinear free-surface conditions within potential-flow theory has been developed as a step towards a fully 3-D method.

Prospects and Challenges for the FPSO
Offshore Technology Conference, 1995ABSTRACT The reasons for the recent growth of interest in the use of the Floating Production Storage and Off-loading (FPSO) system in oilfield developments are examined. An evaluation of oil field characteristics that influencencept selection is made which shows that the FPSO is a very flexible solution in a wide ...
