Objectif The project aims are to define a floating production vessel based on a turret mooring using conversion of existing tankers.The preliminary study has been based on the following parameters : water depth being 100 to 200 m, recoverable reserves 100 millions of barrels, light crude 36 API, peak production 60,000 barrels per day from 6 wells. A typical tanker VLCC of 315,00 DWT has been selected. Turret investigation led to a 12 chains mooring system with a lower turret bearing to support horizontal stresses.The project is based on the concept of a single unit to be inserted within a tanker. This unit is based on the "turret" technology with superstructure floors to hold the processing equipment. The project will be conducted in several phases :- project definition- model testing, computer design and analysis- design of systems and equipment- design interfaces - cost estimates - development schedules- final report.
