Verification of the topside weight dependence on the productivity of offshore platforms using a statistical model
Abstract
The paper covers the dependence of the upper structures’ masses of offshore oil and gas production platforms on the total production volume. For research purposes, the authors collected an array of data on the masses of 128 platforms’ topsides, mainly of the ship’s hull type. The article analyzes the factors, which affect topside weight of the platform. The authors formed a scattering diagram and a linear regression equation, based on the regression analysis of the model. The paper presents the dependence of the masses of the upper structures on the performance of hydrocarbon production platforms, as well as a correlation and regression analysis, which became a base for a statistical model of topsides’ weights. The practical value lies in the possibility of using the model to estimate the mass of the upper structures at the early stages of design, depending on the specified performance of the FPSO platform for both produced oil and associated gas.
