Problems solved by technology

The cushioning effect of this structure is not obvious, the connection strength is weak, and the fatigue resistance is insufficient. Under the high periodic action of waves, fatigue cracks are prone to occur at the connection, and deformation or tearing of the upper module occurs.

Abstract

The invention discloses an upper module connection structure of an FPSO (Floating Production Storage And Offloading) under motion constraint and a fatigue control method. The method comprises the following steps: step 1: setting the maximum value of displacement change of the upper module connection structure collected by a displacement sensor to a maximum displacement threshold of the upper module connection structure; step 2, extracting the time that the upper module connection structure exceeds the maximum displacement threshold and accumulating the time, performing non-destructive testing on the upper module connection structure when the cumulative time exceeding the threshold measured by a control system is more than 500 hours, and maintenance is performed when the maximum crack length of the upper module connection structure reaches 50% of a critical crack length. BY using the structure and method, a hull and an upper module thereof are stabile under the action of waves and have fatigue resistance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a connection structure of upper modules of a floating production, storage and unloading device and a fatigue control method thereof, in particular to a connection structure of an upper module of a floating production, storage and unloading device under motion constraints and a fatigue control method thereof. Background technique [0002] Floating production storage and offloading device, FPSO (Floating Production Storage and Offloading), can carry out preliminary processing and storage of crude oil, and is called "offshore oil factory". FPSO is a comprehensive large-scale offshore oil production base that separates oil and gas from the extracted oil, treats oily sewage, power generation, heat supply, storage and transportation of crude oil products, and integrates personnel residence and production command system. In order to ensure the continuous production of the oilfield, FPSO cannot be docked for maintenance during its serv...
