FPSOs are floating production, storage, and offloading systems used in offshore oil and gas production. They are converted tankers that produce hydrocarbons, store them onboard, and then offload them to shuttle tankers for transport to shore. FPSOs typically have oil and gas processing equipment, storage tanks, living quarters, and mooring or dynamic positioning systems to remain on location. Produced liquids and gas are transferred from subsea wells to the FPSO where they are separated, stored, and offloaded to tankers for transport to shore.
The document outlines various NORSOK standards for equipment and operations used in the oil and gas industry. There are multiple standards listed for subsea production systems, diving and underwater operations, drilling facilities, instrumentation, materials, piping systems, electrical systems, safety, and other areas. The NORSOK standards are intended for use in offshore and onshore petroleum facilities and operations. The website www.standard.no/petroleum provides updated information on the NORSOK standards.
This document provides an overview of FPSO (floating production storage and offloading) vessel design and systems. It discusses the key components of an FPSO including the hull, mooring systems, fluid transfer systems, topside process facilities, marine systems for cargo handling and offloading, and support utilities. The document focuses on turret mooring systems as the predominant mooring type used on FPSOs and how they enable weathervaning and fluid transfer between subsea infrastructure and the topside processing facilities.

ACCESS: A Technical Framework for Adaptive Accessibility SupportMichael Heron
The document describes ACCESS, an open source framework that aims to provide accessibility support for older and less experienced computer users by automatically configuring the operating system based on a user's interactions. The framework uses plugins that monitor user behavior and can make changes like increasing mouse click thresholds. Experimental results found users found the tool beneficial and non-intrusive. Future work includes adding real-time correction and addressing security/trust issues before broader deployment.
The document discusses the stages of the system development life cycle (SDLC), including feasibility studies, system analysis, systems design, development, implementation, and maintenance. It provides details on the objectives and processes involved in each stage, such as defining requirements, designing system components, acquiring or developing software, testing the system, training users, and periodically evaluating systems once implemented.
Performance Testing in the Agile LifecycleTechWell
Traditional large scale end-of-cycle performance tests served enterprises well in the waterfall era. However, as organizations transition to agile development models, many find their tried and true approach to performance testing—and their performance testing resources—becoming somewhat irrelevant. The strict requirements and lengthy durations just don’t fit in the context of an agile cycle. Additionally, investigating system performance at the end of the development effort misses out on the early stage feedback offered by an agile approach. And it’s more important than ever that today’s agile-built systems perform. So how can agile organizations ensure optimum performance of their business critical systems? Lee Barnes discusses why agile teams need to change their thinking about performance from a narrow focus on testing to a broader focus on analysis—from a people, process and technology perspective. Take back techniques for shifting your performance testing/analysis earlier in the development cycle and extracting performance data that is immediately actionable.
1)The Steps for Data to ImplimentationPlanning for ChangeChange.pdfssuserd6ce341
1)The Steps for Data to Implimentation:
Planning for Change
Change is complex and dynamic. It involves moving or transforming from something familiar to
something new. Change can be broad, affecting multiple practices or aspects of the program, or it
might be narrow, affecting fewer practices. Regardless of the scale, change is a dynamic active
and on-going process, rather than a single event.
There are many reasons for programs or agencies to engage in a change process. Some of these
may include:
• A newly defined vision or direction
• A crisis
• A new mandate
• Data that supports a change is needed
It is important that program and agency leaders first examine the current organizational and
political climate to assess readiness to both begin and sustain implementation and scaling up (or
expansion) of new practices or an innovation. It is important to recognize that, planning and
engaging in the implementation of any new innovation, evidence-based practice, or cluster of
practices takes time, energy and resources. The change process can be understood and organized
using defined steps and subsequent activities that are needed to move a concept into reality.
These steps and activities are outlined in the following document, \"A Guide to the
Implementation Process: Stages, Steps and Activities\".
Stage 1: Exploration
The State Leadership Team (SLT) should include cross- sector representation of agencies and
programs impacted by the proposed initiative. The composition, vision and mission of this initial
team may change over time as they go through the stages and steps.
The SLT ensures that the perspectives of key stakeholders from every level of the service system
are included as a part of a needs assessment of the current service delivery system. All available
data describing current challenges and need for change should be gathered and shared with
stakeholders. Stakeholders help build a common understanding of the current status and the
desired changes in practices and outcomes.During the exploration stage, an important
consideration for the State Leadership Team is whether they can commit to a multi-year
implementation process.
example of Exploration
• A State Leadership Team has been established to oversee the initiative.
• A stakeholder group has explored the need for change and the fit of potential new practices or
innovation.
• An innovation or set of practices was selected which addresses the need and is likely to result
in desired example.
• The service system and current practices were analyzed to determine necessary changes in
infrastructure, and training, technical assistance and coaching.
• The decision was made to proceed with the implementation initiative and move into
installation.
• Necessary agency or cross agency leadership has committed to supporting the implementation
of selected practices over multiple years.
Stage 2: Installation
The goal of the installation stage is to build system capacity which will support the
implemen.

GoM Life Extension Assessment
• Deepwater GoM platform was still early in its original design life
• In order to sanction expansion tieback, life extension feasibility study
and preliminary assessment needed to be conducted for approval
from partners
• Operator approached WG to perform feasibility study, gap analysis of
current integrity management activities, and develop high‐level cost
estimate of probable major life extension activities
• Investigated three LE scenarios:
• From 20 years to 30 years
• From 20 years to 40 years
• From 30 years to 40 years

Project Basis
• Deepwater (~5000 ft) facility
located in GoM
• Design life of major systems:
• Hull structures & mooring – 20 yrs
• Topsides structures – 40 yrs
• Topsides equipment – 20 yrs
• Subsea production – 30 yrs
• Export risers/pipelines – 20/30 yrs
• For consistency between systems,
LE process used was based on
modified NORSOK Y‐009
