Shuttle tanker hull adapted for Canadian FPSO project

摘要

For many years now, contracts for ships and floating units to operate in an offshore environment have been much-prized value-added goals at Samsung. These include not only shuttle tankers (discussed in more detail in a separate article) but drill ships, floating storage and offloading units (FSOs), with their derivative production types (FPSOs), crane ships, and various types of floating and fixed platforms. Some of the more interesting ships that have been created here have included a trio of deepwater drill ships for Reading & Bates capable of working in water depths down to 3000m, the 313,000dwt FPSO Bonga for operating off Nigeria, and Saibos FDS, a pipelayer/crane vessel with a jib capacity of 600tonnes.
