Technical field
Present embodiment relates generally to Floating Production Storage unloading (FPSO) ship, and is related to for floating probing life The vessel designs and unloading system of production storage unloading (FDPSO) ship.
Background technology
There is provided prior art related to the present invention, and there is provided on exploitation marine energy sources system such as deep water oil And/or the background below information of natural gas production.Long streamline, power cable and control are frequently necessary between sea bed well and main platform Umbilical cables processed.The length of extension causes energy loss, pressure to decline and production difficulty.For deep water applications structure cost very Height, and because it is manufactured in other places, cost frequently increases.
Other difficulties related to deep water offshore operation come from the motion on personnel and the influential floating ship of efficiency, Especially with hydrodynamics is relevant in fuel tank when it is even more so.Wherein liquid level vibration and to liquid level instrument provide error signal Large-scale horizontal ship in occur related with marine petrochemical operations the problem of being related to main motion, cause processing shutdown and operate Whole efficiency is low.
The principal element that the kinetic characteristic for the floating ship being moored can be modified to improve is draft, Water Plane Area and the floating drauht rate of change, center of gravity (CG) position, on occurring the steady of rolling motion by a small margin and pitching The front face area that heart height, wind, electric current and wave are acted on is with shape, the pipeline and cable of the contact sea bed as mooring element System response and additional mass and the fluid dynamics parameter of damping.Additional mass and the fluid dynamics parameter of damping Value can be determined and and then same by the detailed features of potential barrier equation combination floating ship and the complicated solving mode of annex When be solved for potential source intensity.Herein only it is important to note that increase allow it is attached come " adjustment " for fixed condition Plus quality and/or the feature of damping need some features in combination or more preferably can carry out in an independent way Modification, to provide required characteristic.If having vertical axial symmetry as the ship in the present invention, this optimization can With greatly simplify because so will cause by 6 freedoms of motion be reduced to 4 freedoms of motion (that is, rolling=pitching= Oscillating motion, swaying=surging=transverse movement, yawing=rotary motion, and heaving=vertical motion).If can be with Depart from fluid-dynamic design feature, then can further simplify optimization so that process linearizes and makes grinding for ideal solution Study carefully simplification.
Prior art provides a kind of following marine floating facility, and it has improved hydrodynamic characteristics and prolonged The ability of mooring in long depth, so as to provide satellite platform in deep water, and causes from subsea production tree to platform facility Streamline, cable and umbilical cables it is shorter.Previous design includes contractile center element, and the center element is included to strengthen Fluid dynamic feature, and allow entirety to use following vertical separators, the quantity and size of the vertical separator are independent The monitoring of full-time well yield is there is provided chance and extends retention time.
The telescopic center element being mainly characterized by hull of the ship of the sector, the telescopic center element can It is raised and lowered to allow to transport in phytal zone at the scene.Telescopic center element provides pitching damping unit, uses In the big volume space for combining optional ballast arrangement, holder, vertical pressurization or storage container, or for dispose diving or The moon pool of the centrally-located of the vision operation of remote operation vehicle (ROV), ship is supported without increasing.
The improvement of the hydrodynamical motion of ship is provided by following aspect:Basic hull configuration;At hull base portion The skirt section of extension and fin (fin);By means of the hydrodynamics skirt section in bottom and middle part installation and fin and make center of gravity The quality of separator below the deck in ship structure of reduction makes (reducing at the scene) center of telescopic central section extension Component;And in steel catenary riser, cable, umbilical cables and the mooring line of the immediate vicinity attachment at hull base portion.Institute The feature referred to improves the stability of ship and the additional mass there is provided increase and damping, is carried which improve system in environment Whole Response under lotus.
The ship of prior art can have the hull of hexagonal shape.Floating Production Storage emptying ship can have eight Side shape hull.The Floating Production Storage emptying ship of prior art has with wedge angle to cut ice cube, resist and broken ice cube And ice pressure ridge is moved away to the polygonal outer sidewall configuration of ship.Prior art also teach a kind of probing and production platform, It is made up of the semisubmersible platform body with flat bottom and the barrel shape of circular cross-section.Previous ship has in cylindrical lower There are periphery circular incision or recess, the design reduces pitching and rolling motion.Because Floating Production Storage unloads ship It is generally necessary to production riser is also stably connected under the conditions of storm, therefore the design still needed to Ship body is entered Row is improved.
In addition, product is being unloaded into vessel unloading to ship or oil tank from Floating Production Storage, then product is given birth to from floating Need to be improved in terms of production storage unloading Shipping to land based installation.
As a part for unloading system, catenary anchor leg mooring (CALM) buoy is generally anchored on Floating Production Storage unloading The vicinity of ship.The example of buoy can be used together with unloading system.The buoy is anchored into sea bed and given birth to providing apart from floating Minimum range near production storage unloading ship.In this example, buoy is attached to Floating Production Storage unloading by a pair of cables Ship, and unloading hose extends to buoy from Floating Production Storage unloading ship.The temporary transient mooring of oil tank is to buoy, and flexible pipe Buoy is extended to from oil tank, is received with will pass through flexible pipe and pass through connected buoy from Floating Production Storage unloading ship Product., may be due to by acting on if storm of the severe weather conditions for example with very big wind speed occurs during unloading The motion of oil tank caused by wind and flow force on oil tank and cause problems occur.Therefore, it is also desirable to commonly used It is improved in by transferred product to the uninstalling system of oil tank being stored on Floating Production Storage unloading ship.
Following floating ship is needed, it is removable by providing multiple dynamics in the tunnel being formed in the floating ship Kinetic energy absorption capability of the dynamic easy leaning device (tendering mechanisms) to provide to ship.
Following floating ship is also needed to, it provides wave damping in the tunnel being formed in the floating ship and ripple is broken It is broken.
A kind of hull of the ship in tunnel is needed to provide the floating ship of frictional force.
Present embodiment meets these needs.
