15、ting tension leg platforms incorporates the manyengineering disciplines that are involved with offshore installations, either floating or fixed. Defined herein areguidelines developed from the latest practices in tension leg platforms, and adapted from successful practicesemployed for related struct
16、ural systems in the offshore and marine industries. A tension leg platform (TLP) is a vertically moored, buoyant, compliant structural system wherein excess buoyancy ofthe platform (in excess of weight and riser loads) maintains tension in the mooring system. A TLP may be designed toserve a number o
17、f functional roles associated with offshore oil and gas exploitation. It is considered particularlysuitable for deepwater applications. A TLP system consists of many components, each of which has a precedent inthe offshore or marine industry. The uniqueness of a TLP is in the systematic influence of
18、 one component on another.Consequently, the design is a highly interactive process which should account for functional requirements,component size and proportion, equipment layout and space allocation, hydrodynamic reaction, structural detail,weight and centers of gravity, etc. All disciplines invol
19、ved in the design process should anticipate several iterations toachieve proper balance of the design factors. This publication summarizes available information and guidance for thedesign, fabrication, and installation of a TLP system. These recommendations are based on published literature and the
20、work of many companies who are activelyengaged in TLP design. As with earlier editions of this publication, it represents a snapshot of the state of the art andpractice of TLP design. As new technology develops, this publication will be updated to reflect the latest accepteddesign and analysis metho
21、ds.Each section of this publication covers a specific aspect of tension leg platforms. The main text contains basicengineering design principles which are applicable to the design, construction, and operation. Equations for analysesare included where appropriate. In many cases these equations repres
22、ent condensations of more complete analysisprocedures, but they can be used for making reasonable and conservative predictions of motions, forces, orcomponent strength. More detailed discussions of these engineering principles, describing the logic basis andadvanced analytical concepts from which th
23、ey were developed, are given in the commentary. The designer andoperator are encouraged to use the most current analysis and testing methods available, and bring forth to theInstitute any newfound principles or procedures for review and consideration.iiiContentsPage1 Scope . . . . . . . . . . . . .
