Abstract
Hui Zhou 25-8 DPP Topsides will be the first floatover installed in China by using DP Class II vessel Hai Yang Shi You 278 or HYSY278. This paper will present the DP floatover method, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of the floatover operation when using the DP system. The dynamic positioning capability of HYSY278 and the installation window will be addressed in details. This study will provide the key findings of floatover installation analysis and can be served as a reference for DP floatover operations in harsh environmental conditions such as South China Sea.
