Risk Analysis of FPSO Single Point Mooring Locking Mechanism Based on Lifecycle Integrity Management
By introducing the analysis strategy of the full lifecycle management,based on the summary of the historical fail-ures,the environmental and operational risks faced by the FPSO in different stages were evaluated,and the targeted improvement measures were proposed to improve the safe operation level of the FPSO.Based on the load transfer mechanism of typical FPSO single-point system,the stress situation of the buoy and shipside structure was analyzed.Through case studies of failures during the service life of the original oil field were sorted out,and an evaluation of the environmental adaptability conversion of the new oil field was conducted.The risk factor analysis and response strategies for future operations were proposed from both technical and management perspectives.The study revealed the challenges faced by single point mechanism under harsh environmental con-ditions,including large structural deformation,fatigue cracks,operational errors,etc.It was shown that the risks could be effec-tively reduced through structural strengthening,regular maintenance,personnel training and other measure.
