Study on the Safe Distance between Offshore Oil and Gas Fixed Platform and Ship Customary Routes

Year: 2014

Type: article

Abstract: With an increasing number of the offshore oil and gas fixed platforms, the traffic environment is becoming more complicated, which will have a negative impact on the safety of both platforms and ships around. Considering the operation method and safety of the offshore oil and gas fixed platform, and the ship’s motion when being not under command, the safe distance between the platform and the ships’ customary routes is determined according to the big and frequent ship type sailing in the routes. The safe distance calculation result provides a basis for both the site selection and the distance keeping for ships passing by the platform and the water around.
