TURRET MOORING SYSTEMS

Despite the FPSO Ichthys’ relatively small hull size, the turret mooring system is not lacking in complexity. Due to its location in an area prone to category 5 cyclones, it has a 10,000 tonnes mooring load capacity. The Ichthys Turret manifold feeds into the world’s largest swivel stack. Two other remarkable features of the Ichthys Turret Mooring system are:
• World’s first 40-year in-situ design life
• World’s third largest turret
