PETROLEUM DEVELOPMENT OMAN - 3 SPM's SUPPLY PROJECT
* Pipe Stress Calculations for single CALM Buoy System fulfilling DNV requirements. Considering
relevant loadings such as riser and floating hose loads, additional to survival load case. Used to check
stress compliance, reactions at pipe supports on turntable piping and structure as well as expansion
joints and nozzle loads at product Swivel unit. The buoy itself is free to move up and down, sideways
and in pitching and rolling motions.
Single Point Mooring (SPM) system which enables the vessel to weathervane whilst it loads or
unloads hydrocarbons, chemicals or fresh water. The two categories of SPMs are as follows:
- Single point mooring buoy that is designed for use by any trading tanker, and is thus independent of
the vessel
- System, such as a turret mooring, that is incorporated within a vessel such as an FSO or FPSO.
WAHA OIL COMPANY - ES SIDER TERMINAL CALM BUOY PROJECT
* Pipe Stress Calculations for single CALM Buoy System fulfilling DNV requirements. It's designed for
offshore application with water depths of up to 50 metres and beyond. The maximum mooring force is
400 Tonne and this is the most appropriate for the majority of terminals around the world. It consists of
a circular floating buoy anchored by means of multiple chain legs fixed to the seabed by either
conventional anchor legs or piles. The tanker is moored via hawsers to the turntable on the buoy. The
tanker is loaded or offloaded by means of flexible marine hoses from the buoy to the vessels manifold.
The connection between the piping inside the buoy and the subsea pipeline is by means of flexible
hoses.
