Project Description |
|
Total |
Akpo |
MCS Kenny performed a review and optimisation of the Front End Engineering
FPSO mooring system design. For this project, MCS Kenny demonstrated the feasibility
of a 12 leg mooring system for the FPSO while the basic design was based
on a 16-leg system. During the review both extreme and fatigue analyses
were performed and issues such as allowable stress concentration in the
top chain were assessed. |

BP |
Greater Plutonio |
MCS Kenny supported BP on determining suitable mooring systems for the Greater
Plutonio project. The scope involved selecting a suitable
mooring system for an FPSO & offloading buoy. |

BP |
Offshore Sakhalin Island |
Evaluation of the survival and operational response characteristics
of mooring and drilling riser systems for a Sedco 600 series vessel due
to perform drilling operations offshore Sakhalin Island. This evaluation
involved optimising the mooring system and establishing the allowable
operational response surfaces for wind, wave and current conditions. |
|
Nexan |
Riser/mooring screening |
MCS Kenny performed a study for Nexan to screen four hull concepts (mini-TLP,
Truss Spar, Cell Spar, deep-draft Semi) for feasible riser & mooring
solutions. Both flexible pipe and steel catenary riser (SCR) options
was considered. A second deliverable was a technology study of
HP (15ksi) riser system to identify proven technology, technology gaps
and outline efforts required to confidently “bridge” the technology gaps. |

Shell |
Bonga Field |
MCS Kenny performed the detailed verification of the off-loading transfer
line system for the Bonga field, West of Africa. Detailed verification
of the off-loading transfer line system for the Bonga field, West of
Africa. MCS Kenny also performed a review of the FPSO, Offloading Buoy
mooring installation procedures, Flying lead and umbilical installation
procedures. |
