... sensitivity studies to be performed. LMA method can consider various topside features in computing the WID loads as the wave passes through the deck. Consequently, a greater understanding of the level of influence from various topsides features on the magnitude of the load absorbed by the topside and its...

... Float-over is one of the methods for installing offshore platform topsides on its substructure. In the early days, most heavy topsides adopted the modular concept whereby the topsides consisted of a series of modules supported by a Module Support Frame (MSF), which were individually lifted during...

... and Process solutions are the key drivers for design and efficient operation in terms of maintaining system integrity and profitability. Subsea and Export systems rely on modelling multiphase thermodynamic calculations for design and real-time monitoring systems. Topsides and Onshore systems require modelling...

... mentioned. This paper presents a method to estimate the loadout loads on any large offshore structure, in this case a TLP. The loadout operation of TLP usually comprises of lifting of the structure, i.e. the hull with its topsides, to transfer the loads from temporary support blocks onto jacks followed...

...). Thanks to its high efficiency, the system has low power requirement (typically below 50W/m). Therefore, it can also be an alternative to DEH when topsides capacities cannot meet footprint and power supply requirements. Pipeline heat tracing is a known technology for onshore plants and by extension...
