Mooring Chain Handling & Tensioning System for FPSO
OTC Brasil, 2011Abstract A mooring chain handling and tensioning system has been developed as an alternatative to the other on-vessel mooring equipment for the FPSO (Floating Production Storage Offloading) type vessels. The mooring chain handler is intended for use on any vessel that is anchored with a pre-laid spread mooring ...

Coupled dynamics of tensioned buoyant platforms and mooring tethers
Engineering Structures, 1983Abstract A mathematical model is presented of the coupled dynamics of a tensioned buoyant surface platform and the lateral dynamics of its taut mooring tethers. A finite element model of the lateral mooring tether dynamics is extended to take account of nonlinear square law fluid damping by a simple global ‘whole tether’ linearization and an ...

Calibration of Weather Dependent Mooring Line Tension Safety Factors
Offshore Technology ConferenceAbstract The regulations in Norway require the mooring design check to be done for a 100-year storm. This requirement is also valid for short-term drilling operation. This typically leads to mooring systems with long mooring lines, poor operability for drilling operations and significant thruster usage to keep position.

Quasi-static Modeling Of Tension Leg Platform Mooring System
Conference Proceedings on Engineering in the Ocean Environment, 2005Tethers are anchoring elements of a Tension Leg Platform, TLP, one of the systems appropriate for offshore drilling and production of oil at great depths. A design oriented, simplified model for static analysis of tethers has been described re cently 1. Basic equations for calculating the gross behavior of tether/platform interaction were pre sented.

Tension In A Taut Line Mooring; Frequency Domain Analysis
Offshore Technology Conference, 1974ABSTRACT The random response of a taut line mooring excited by sea waves is treated in this paper. For analytical convenience, mooring line tension is divided into a deterministic quasi-static component and a random dynamic component.

Analysis in Mooring Chain Links Tensioned on Curved Surface
Ibero-Latin American Congress on Computational Methods in Engineering (CILAMCE)The development of offshore energy resources, specifically oil and gas, is increasing. Consequently, there is an increasing demand for state-of-the-art technologies and concepts to enhance productivity in this sector. One critical component of deep and ultra-deep water floating platforms is the mooring system, which requires rigorous design ...
