Safe Design - Summary


Good segregation between HC areas and safe areas LQ, evacuation means and HVAC intake upwind Escape tunnel along the whole ship Process area segregated from cargo deck by plated H-0 deck No high pressure HC equipment on cargo deck

Safe Design - Summary (contd.)


Water ballast tanks around the cargo tanks, double barrier (double hull) Open layout in modules; reduced explosion risk Design the aft for shuttle tanker collision Include measures for collision avoidance Large helideck

Ship movements must be considered for all material


handling and storage

Safe Design Summary (contd.)

Dropped/ swinging load barriers Lifting above pressurized equipment prohibited One must expect green sea in bad weather condition;
Personnel should not be present at cargo deck in such conditions

OGP: Guideline for Managing Marine Risks Associated with FPSOs

Conclusions
Assess risk and safety
Early In all phases

Gather experience Identify all hazards Define safety strategies and standards Follow up with control and documentation

Conclusions There are challenges with FPSOs, but if properly designed and operated, a FPSO is a very safe concept!
