Modelling of seakeeping ability of FPSO vessels Modelowanie właściwości morskich statków FPSO

Problems concerning preliminary design of FPSO vessels are presented in view of their seakeeping ability. The article analyzes the presently applied approach in which seakeeping quality of FPSO vessels is taken into consideration and discusses possibilities of using this approach at the preliminary stage of design. Besides, the current approach used for predicting such phenomena as heaving, slamming and green water loading is discussed. Slowa kluczowe: FPSO, offshore, projektowanie, wstepny etap projektowania, wlaściwości morskie, zalewanie pokladu, sleming, nurzania Abstrakt W artykule przedstawiono problematyke projektowania wstepnego statkow FPSO, biorąc pod uwage wlaściwości morskie tych statkow. W artykule przeanalizowano aktualnie stosowane podejście, dotyczące uwzgledniania wlaściwości morskich statkow FPSO i mozliwości wykorzystania tego podejścia na wstepnym etapie projektowania. W artykule przedstawiono aktualnie stosowane podejście do prognozowania m.in. nurzan, slemingu i zalewania pokladu statkow FPSO.
