Abstract

This paper provides a method to analyze the safety factor of the hawser line between Floating Storage Offloading (FSO) and Single Point Mooring (SPM) by using motions simulation. The simulation was conducted based on irregular wave arrival for 1 year and 100 years. A case study for a mooring system of a 55,081 tons displacement of FSO tanker to a 360 tons displacement of SPM buoy was simulated with the existing hawser line length of 45 m and the new hawser line length of 70 m. The wave forces and moments are computed using Ansys Aqwa based on the 3D Panel Method both in the frequency domain and time domain. The wave periods are 6 s and 8 s for the 1-year and 100-year data, respectively. The safety factor of the hawser line significantly improves by using the new hawser line.
