... to change in 2015, the project faced significant financial hurdles, and the project team decided to refresh the design concept to reduce cost and simplify. The team regrouped to propose a smaller semi-submersible Floating Production System (FPS) with a simplistic mooring design. The Topsides was designed...

... Abstract This paper provides an overview of the design of the Vito topsides production train and the overall approach to achieve a minimum technical scope, a simplistic design, and limit the payload to 10,000 st. A 10,000 st topsides target was utilized in order to fabricate a single topsides...
