Cold-work stiffening for new penetrations in an FPSO fan house
New filter-separator penetrations in an FPSO fan house needed stiffening, and the stiffening had first been designed as welded.
Point cloud data, and the manufacturer's data for the filters, which the penetrations had to be sized for.
Redesigned the stiffening from welded to bolted and blind-bolted connections so no hot work was needed offshore. Checked the connections to EN 1993-1-8 and the plate for strength and buckling. Developed concept options for protecting the units from the crane.
A calculation report, fabrication drawings and a 3D model, with concept sketches for the protection options.
EN 1993-1-8, BS 5950-1 (blind bolts).
Design and calculations; check of the drawings.
