Problems solved by technology

[0006] It is generally not possible to operate such a system with interconnected power system sections (i.e. with connected bus bar connections) because a fault such as a short circuit or generator failure would normally result in a complete blackout of the ship's power system
Such a loss of power would result in loss of the vessel's position, which could be harmful; it could also result in oil spills or loss of life

Abstract

The invention relates to a fault protection system for a power system of a dynamically positioned vessel. A fault protection system for a power system of a dynamically positioned vessel is provided. The power system is divided into two or more power system sections, each of which includes a bus section of a power distribution bus. The bus sections are connected in a ring configuration by bus bar connections. Each bus section includes a connection to the generator and a connection to the thruster drives of the dynamically positioned vessel. The fault protection system includes a fault isolation system including, for each power system section, a bus tie circuit breaker for breaking a connection provided by the bus tie.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fault protection system for a power system of a dynamically positioned ship, a power system for a dynamically positioned ship, and a corresponding method. Background technique [0002] Dynamic positioning systems may be provided for floating vessels such as semi-submersible submarines, drillships, floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels. Such dynamically positioned vessels may use electrically driven propellers (ie, electric thrusters) to maintain position during oil and gas drilling operations, station keeping, anchoring, port maneuvers, and the like. For certain types of operations where there is an increased risk of crude oil contamination, loss of life, collisions, etc., it must be ensured that the position of the vessel is maintained so as to minimize these risks. Therefore, the integrity and fail-safe operation of the electrical system powering the thrusters of the dynamically positioned vessel is of ...
