FLOATING PRODUCTION BUOY AND METHOD FOR INSTALLING THE SAME

摘要

As an aspect of the present invention, a floating production buoy with an equipment module (10) includes: a GBS (20) fixated on a sea bed; a buoyant tank (30) connected to the underside of the equipment module and adjusting buoyancy with seawater and a gas; and a storing tank (40) connected to the underside of the buoyant tank (30) and adjusting buoyancy with a gas and oil. According to this, an integrated configuration due to the module is reflected to the floating production buoy with consideration of a property that an offshore well shall move often. Thus, the floating production buoy is capable of being easily installed and reducing installation costs. In addition, the floating production buoy is capable of being launched on water by emptying the GBS in an early installation stage to secure additional buoyancy and reducing a burden to a crane due to a weight of the offshore well lifted by the crane.
