The main structure of China's self-developed floating, production, storage, and offloading (FPSO) facility, Haiyang Shiyou 122, has been completed in Qingdao, east China's Shandong Province, China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) said on Wednesday. After 20 months of construction, Haiyang Shiyou 122, also Asia's first cylindrical FPSO facility, has entered the integrated debugging phase. Its main structure consists of two parts, namely the hull and the upper functional module. With a maximum diameter of about 90 meters, the facility has a main deck area equivalent to 13 standard basketball courts. It is designed with a maximum displacement of 100,000 tonnes and a storage capacity of 60,000 tonnes of oil. Haiyang Shiyou 122, with a designed service life of 30 years, integrates functions of crude oil production, storage, and external transmission. It is able to provide continuous operation at sea for 15 years without docking. The facility is scheduled to be completed in the first half of 2024, after which it will be commissioned in the Liuhua oilfields in the Pearl River Mouth Basin, providing a new option for China's efficient development of deepwater oil and gas fields. __________________ ShanghaiEye focuses on producing top-quality contents.
