FSO Conversion — 20-Year-Old Suezmax to Floating Storage & Offloading
Conversion of a 20-year-old Suezmax tanker to a Floating Storage and Offloading (FSO) vessel for offshore deployment.
Multiple engineering aspects addressed under a tight schedule driven by vessel deployment deadlines. The project demonstrates specialised conversion know-how in complex offshore environments — extending vessel lifetime for offshore storage and offloading operations.
Scope of Work
Coordinated and supervised multiple critical mechanical and marine systems refurbishment activities, including:
- Structural design
- Accommodation redesign
- Strength assessments
- Piping design
- Stability calculations
- Lifetime extension engineering
Our Approach
HYDRUS contributed technical leadership across the conversion design — structural design, accommodation redesign, strength assessments, piping design and stability calculations. The project is currently in the class review phase, demonstrating specialised offshore conversion expertise under tight schedule constraints.
