The effects of the separation distances between array system and heading angles on energy absorption in both sway and heave modes...

... a confident basis for the separation distance and design of the fluid transfer lines (FTLs) between the SWHP and the FPSO. Because of the close proximity of the SWHP to the FPSO, establishing the separation distance and relative motions between the platforms through all load conditions was a key factor...

... (24 to 25 inches) can be substituted for three flexible flow lines. The separation distance between the FPSU and the offloading buoy is designed to be anywhere between 1000 meters to 2000 meters. When using rigid steel pipes, the U configuration requires less separation distance than W...

... at certain specialized terminals--that interest in this problem has been re- newed. Traditionally, disturbances resulting from vessels passing near other moored vessels have been reduced to an accept- able level by taking one or more of the following precautions: 1. Increasing the separation distance 2...

... ABSTRACT The ocean platform described here is formed by two coaxial cylinders with a variable separation distance and is similar to some currently used offshore "jack-up" oil drilling platforms. The variable separation distance allows the platform natural frequencies to be de tuned, in certain...
