Offshore
Offshore approach
� Strong focus on design reliability
� Extensive adoption of direct calculation principles
� Use of multi-disciplinary design teams
Shipbuilding approach
� Focus on production process, keen on costs
� FPSO part of shipyards mass production, less flexibility during
8 -12 week dry dock assembly time
� Implications of building offshore structures not always clearly
realised
� Clear division between disciplines

Engineering Approach
FPSO hull according to CN 30.7
� First screening based on World Wide data, FS = 1.0
� World Wide FS = 1.0 corresponds to FS � 3.0 for benign
environment
� Limited experience analysis software
