Abstract

The Natuna Islands have the largest natural gas reserves in the Asia Pacific region even in the World. To explore the hydrocarbon reserves that are scattered in many points, the FPSO is one of the alternative choices that investors are interested. The FPSO investment is more efficient than FSO, because the FPSO is a mobile system that able to carry out a reliable production processes and operation. The technological revolution in the FPSO has shown a significant improvement through the development of cylindrical shaped FPSO instead of ship shaped FPSO. In this study, the research is focused on the numerical investigations to obtain sea keeping performance of cylindrical FPSO which have an alternative bottom shape design in the Indonesia sea environment. By considering the results of the analysis of the ship's FPSO motion characteristics (Ship Shaped FPSO) and the JONSWAP wave spectrum, the operability analysis of the FPSO cylinder was performed to determine the relationship between the FPSO cylinder motion characteristics and the ability to operate at the sea, and concerning the specified operating criteria. Heave and roll motion performance will be discussed in this study.
