From a feasibility study to the fast-track completion of an FPSO for ultra-deepwater application, SOFEC finds new and innovative ways of meeting customer requirements.SOFEC engineers are expert in developing advanced, cost-effective solutions while considering the practical requirements imposed by the fabrication, transportation, installation, and maintenance of these large mechanical systems in a complete range of ocean environments. State-of-the-art hydrodynamic analysis along with FEA and fatigue analysis based on results of both frequency and time-domain simulations are used to predict mooring system motions and environmental forces. Verification comes from in-situ results and extensive model basin testing.
SOFEC scope includes:
