FPSO AND SUBSEA AUTOMATION, INTEGRATION AND OPTIMISATION
INTEGRATED CONTROL & SAFEGUARDING SYSTEM (ICSS)
Reduced risk due to extensive expertise in implementing
advanced ICSS solutions to global players in the FPSO arena.
We are experts in automating, integrating, and optimizing core
FPSO functionality (marine systems, turret, topside and F&G),
while adhering to stringent international regulatory and safety
standards.
PACKAGE INTEGRATION
We use our multi-platform capability and end-to-end
integration expertise with OLE for Process Control (OPC) and
other protocols to fully interface OEM packages (boiler, power
generators, etc,) with the ICSS. All data is available for effective
remote control and operation.
POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (PMS)
Our approach is to develop power management as a
component within the ICSS. This eases maintenance and
reduces dependence on specialist 3rd party providers. We
provide a solution that is not a black box, with limited, or
fixed functionality.
OPTIMISATION
Increased safety, maximised production up-time, and reduced
operating costs directly attributable to our integrated solutions
for predictive maintenance, intelligent alarm management, and
closed-loop control optimisation. Safe, stable and predictable
plants yield higher output for the same input costs, thereby
maximizing profit.
TELEMETRY
Proven solution for wireless communications where safety
and reliability are imperative. Typically installed for safety
communications between the vessel and the turret, and
between the vessel and the CALM buoy for custody transfer.
Two-out-of three voting (SIL 3) improves protection of assets
and prevents environmental damage.
MAINTENANCE
A range of solutions can be selected and tailored to meet
specific requirements, from global 24/7 on-site engineering
support, through to remote support and problem solving.
Issues are tracked, escalated and closed out with full
management reports. Faults can be rapidly simulated on in-
office hardware for robust and permanent resolution.
FPSO AUTOMATION
SUBSEA AND HPU CONTROL
SIMULATORS
One-to-one replication of
real-world functionality
ensures operators and
maintenance personnel
are well prepared for plant
operation. Reusing ICSS
and MCS configuration
code in the simulators
reduces duplicate-
engineering effort.
HYDRAULIC POWER UNIT (HPU)
Our solution is to tightly integrate the HPU control and
safeguarding logic with the MCS by utilizing a common
platform. Integrating failsafe communication streamlines
and optimises the interaction between the two systems.
MASTER CONTROL STATION (MCS)
The MCS is architected and designed bottom-up for high
availability, and reliable operation. The solution is com-
prised of hard PLCs, with redundancy at all levels. The
system is fault tolerant, with bumpless switchover in the
event of a system upset. The MCS can be engineered to run
on the same platform as the topside ICSS, or can easily be
integrated with the topside systems through use of open
connectivity standards.

SELECTED DELIVERY SUCCESSES
SUBSEA MCS CASE EXAMPLE – FPSOs KIZOMBA A & B (ANGOLA)
We initially developed a standard subsea library, which was then tested “to fail”, to ensure individual components perform
reliably under foreseeable conditions. Library components were then grouped to form modular units e.g. production
well, manifold, etc., and once again tested rigorously. All the modular units were then integrated using the C&E, interlock
schedules and control strategies.
The hardware for the project was a high-availability, fault tolerant, hardened PLC system, comprising of eight redundant
pairs, with four sets of servers and client stations. The HPU (failsafe system for the subsea control devices on the subsea
trees, and one of the more critical units within the system) was fully integrated with the MCS to allow for seamless,
optimised control.
After extensive internal and external factory acceptance testing using simulators, the MCS and HPU were connected
to the physical subsea tree for enhanced factory acceptance tests, whereby the end-to-end integration of the control
system with the subsea devices was witnessed, validated and verified.
The system was then installed, and site-integration testing executed; first with simulators, and finally with the physical
trees, on location at the field. Tests included all devices, strategies, shutdowns and interlocks. Thereafter the system was
commissioned and declared “ready for oil.”
Currently we provide periodic health care and maintenance checks on the system.

Measure and audit plant safety, prevent spurious shutdowns and stabilize production outputs – the
result is improved profits due to production increases for the same given value of input costs.
Maximise plant output yields by ensuring the process is always tuned to current operating conditions –
increased yields result in increased profits.
Measure critical-asset performance and prevent damage – monitor real-time efficiencies and power
consumptions to manage maintenance budgets based on real plant requirements .
Monitoring equipment effectiveness, asset availability and performance, and repair requirements versus
budgeting for routine maintenance only – discover which assets are affecting profits, and why.
Maximise production plan within available plant and asset constraints – see how plant performance
measures up against plan and budget.
Production and performance - from remote plants and Head Office – create centralised data warehouse
so there is one version of the truth to manage and correct the real plant and production problems.
Connectivity and value-added OPC tools to connect, encrypt, secure, monitor, manipulate, transfer,
report, and manage data across your plants.
ICSS CASE EXAMPLE – FPSO OKHA (AUSTRALIA)
The project was to supply the complete ICSS and operator training simulator for the OKHA disconnectable FPSO.
The project was executed in full compliance with IEC 61511, considering the full IEC life cycle. Work was completed in 10
months, ahead of the exhaustive factory acceptance test (FAT). Hardware consisted of multiple redundant servers, clients,
redundant CPU’s and I/O. Extensive interfacing to various 3rdparty vendors across multiple platforms was required.
In parallel a full operator training simulator was built on the same ICSS platform to emulate the FPSO control system
exactly, thus reducing training time for new operations personnel.
All work was completed in compliance with our IS0 9002 quality system, with documented work-flows, policies and
procedures to ensure that all deliverables had undergone mandated quality checks.
Moore deployed an experienced construction and commissioning team to the shipyard, to ensure the control system
was ready on time for first oil. The customer’s stringent quality requirements and demanding schedule were all met on
time, and on budget.
ALARM MANAGEMENT CASE EXAMPLE – FPSO FRADE (BRAZIL)
FPSO FRADE specified the highest standards for alarm management and safety, and hence chose our alarm-management
solution .
The solution integrated with the ICSS, allowing for critical alarms and operator actions to be stored, tracked and reported
via the web-based HMI. Standard web-based reports allow users to immediately identify poorly configured alarms and
nuisance alarms (bad actors). Continuous improvements and long-term maintenance initiatives were easily established
to optimise alarm performance.
Reports provided key information on safety-related incidents such as the number of shut-down alarms, when these
occurred, the number and duration of alarms that have been locked out, and the number and duration of alarm manual
overrides. This information provided critical insight into how safely the vessel was being operated, and is being used to
preempt major plant catastrophes.
In addition, the solution is being effectively used as a root-cause analysis tool, and to manage MOC (management of
change) component audits by comparing live ICSS alarm settings against designed settings.
DETAILED ENGINEERING
Moore participates extensively in FEED studies to provide early architectural
solutions, safety requirements, and accurate pricing to aid end customers with
their FEED study inputs.
FACTORY ACCEPTANCE TESTING (FAT)
Comprehensive FATs reduce the time spent commissioning and fault finding on
site. Our audited approach using simulators provides assurance that systems
perform in situ as anticipated.
MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT
After system go-live we provide comprehensive maintenance services to
maximise plant safety and uptime, respond to crises, and perform routine-
maintenance operations.
