API RP 2SK

FPSO spread mooring — strength and utilisation

Ask Deckhand to screen an FPSO spread-mooring system for line safety factors, or run the full environmental-load static equilibrium of the system.

Run it on Open Deck

What you can ask it to do

  • Screen a spread-mooring system for line tensions and safety factors (API RP 2SK).
  • Run the environmental-load static equilibrium of the moored system.
  • Report the most-loaded line and its utilisation against the criterion.

Questions

What does API RP 2SK cover?

The design and analysis of station-keeping (mooring) systems for floating structures — line tensions, safety factors, and the intact and damaged conditions.

What can Deckhand return?

Line tensions and safety factors for a spread-mooring layout, the static equilibrium under environmental load, and the governing line and its utilisation.
