The form of the buoy 4 is not limited to the off-line and on-line buoy form shown in fig. 3, 4.
Based on the above multi-point mooring system, the invention also provides a design method of the system, which comprises the following steps:
step S1: preliminarily determining the number and the orientation of mooring cables;
step S2: determining the radius of the mooring cable, the position and size of the buoy 4, the composition and the properties of each section;
step S3: and (4) performing mooring performance analysis, and confirming the attribute of each segment in the mooring cable.
Further, step S1 includes the steps of:
step S11: for a cylindrical FPSO, a polyester cable tensioning type mooring system usually adopts a 3 × 4 form (three groups of mooring cables, each group comprises 4 mooring cables), for the 3 × 4 mooring system, a symmetrical structure is generally adopted, the included angle between each group of mooring cables is 120 degrees, the included angle between each group of mooring cables is 2 degrees, and under the condition, when the position of one group of mooring cables is known to be determined, the positions of the other two groups of mooring cables can be obtained;
step S12: collecting marine environmental conditions, and determining the orientation of the mooring cable according to the extreme directions of the south China sea wind and waves, the arrangement of the submarine pipe cables and the positions of the living buildings.
Further, step S2 includes the steps of:
step S21: collecting marine geological data, determining the position of an anchor point, wherein in order to ensure that the tension meets the requirement, the mooring radius of the tension mooring system is usually larger, and the mooring radius of a cylindrical FPSO tension mooring system with the water depth of about 300m and the water displacement of 10 ten thousand tons is generally set to be about 2500m by combining the special environmental conditions and geological conditions of the sea area of south China sea;
step S22: due to the long mooring radius, the mooring lines comprise: the device comprises an upper anchor chain 1, a lower anchor chain 7, an upper polyester cable 3, a lower polyester cable 5, a buoy 4 and a mounting chain 12;
step S23: the length of each section is selected by fully considering the capacity of the transport ship and the tensioning requirement during installation, generally speaking, the length of a single end of the polyester cable 9 is not more than 1400m for the transport ship, and the length of the upper anchor chain 1 is preferably more than 200m for the tensioning stage after the platform is in place;
step S24: collecting past project data, preliminarily determining the properties of each section of mooring rope, paying attention to the fact that the buoy 4 needs to be selected to meet the requirements that the polyester cable 9 cannot bottom and the tension of a mooring system meets the relevant requirements of specification and fatigue life, and fully considering the past delivery performance of a supplier.
Further, step S3 includes the steps of:
step S31: performing frequency domain-time domain computational analysis on the primarily selected mooring system through potential flow commercial software, such as aqwa, wadam, orcaflex or simo-riflex;
step S32: evaluating the calculation result of the frequency domain-time domain calculation analysis, not only needing to consider the tension and fatigue requirements of the mooring system and the requirement that the polyester cable 9 can not touch the bottom, but also meeting the requirements of other specialties, such as whether the maximum deviation can meet the limit requirement of the stand pipe and whether the lifting force at the anchor point can be borne by the pile foundation; the properties of the mooring line components are continuously adjusted by these requirements until all requirements are met. (such as the distribution of the length of each section, the selection of the radius, the rigidity and the breaking load of each section, the properties of the buoy, the position of the buoy and the like).
In the mooring analysis process, generally, for tension mooring, tension is a first control requirement and must be placed at a first priority, tension of each section of a mooring rope needs to be fully considered in the tension analysis, the tension meets the requirement according to the safety factor of requirements related to classification societies such as DNV, ABS, CCS, BV and the like, and for a polyester cable mooring system, the rigidity has strong nonlinear characteristics, so that the relation between static rigidity after installation and dynamic rigidity in the operation process needs to be calculated by using a recommended formula of DNV, ABS or API.
Fatigue strength of a steel structure in a mooring system needs to fully consider fatigue of the steel structure, including tension fatigue, vortex-induced motion fatigue and out-of-plane bending fatigue, a wave walking diagram is often used to obtain input environmental conditions, stress and tension cycle times under different amplitudes and periods are obtained by a rain flow meter algorithm according to time domain calculation results, and then fatigue life is checked through an SN (sequence number) or TN (twisted nematic) curve. The requirement that the polyester cable 9 cannot touch the bottom is mainly that the collision of the steel structure connected between the polyester cable 9 and the lower anchor chain 7 to the polyester cable 9 has the risk of damaging the structure of the polyester cable 9, so that the service life of the mooring system is reduced.
Step S33: carrying out a scale model experiment on the mooring cable, mainly paying attention to whether the tension of the mooring cable can be matched with a result obtained by numerical simulation;
due to the overlong mooring radius of the mooring system and the size of the pool, the model experiment is difficult to simulate the full-size mooring system under the reduced scale, and the mooring system is often subjected to truncation treatment, so that effective fatigue and polyester cable 9 bottoming data are difficult to obtain, but the tension data are effective in the process of model experiment calibration. Note that the mooring system parameters of the numerically simulated model and the experimental model are kept consistent during the calibration process.
Step S34: if the requirements of step S32 and step S33 are both satisfied, then the choice of mooring system is reasonable. The following description is given by way of specific examples.
Example 1
The embodiment provides a mooring mode, and the operating water depth of the ocean platform is 313 m. The structure thereof is described in detail below.
TABLE 1 component parts of segments of mooring lines

In this embodiment, the pretension of the upper anchor chain 1 in the mooring system is 12% of the breaking load, the pretension can be adjusted according to specific requirements, and the pretension of the tension mooring system is generally between 10% and 16% of the breaking load.
Fig. 1 is a plan view of arrangement of a mooring system, wherein a 45-degree northeast direction is a direction with the largest storm load, a group of mooring cables is arranged, included angles between the other two groups of mooring cables and the group of mooring cables are 120 degrees, and the distance between the cables in each group of mooring cables is 2 degrees.
Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the mooring system, with specific information in table 1.
Fig. 3 shows a conventional connection form of the pontoon 4, in which the pontoon 4 and the mounting chain 12 are connected by a triangular plate 11, and the mounting chain 12 is provided to the left and right sides of the pontoon 4 by about 7m (the position of the pontoon 4 is in the middle of the section 4 in table 1). This type of connection of the buoy 4 is most conventional and is a good choice from many suppliers, but due to the number of appurtenant components and the need to install the chain 12, the weight near the buoy 4 increases, reducing the net buoyancy of the buoy 4.
Example 2
This embodiment provides another means of mooring and the structure thereof is described in detail below.
TABLE 2 component parts of segments of mooring lines
The difference between the embodiment and the embodiment 1 is the connection form of the buoy 4, the embodiment adopts an online buoy, as shown in fig. 4, the buoy 4 can be directly connected between the polyester cables 9 at the two ends, and the chain 12, the triangular plate 11 and other accessory components are not required to be installed, so that the weight around the buoy 4 can be reduced to a great extent, and a better buoyancy effect is achieved. In fig. 4, two buoyancy blocks constituting the buoy 4 are shown, the polyester cable 9 can pass through between the two buoyancy blocks, the upper buoyancy block and the lower buoyancy block are connected by bolts 15, and the specific connection mode is determined by a supplier. The online buoy has no special requirements on the weaving process and the material property of the polyester cable 9.
Finally, it should be noted that: the above examples are only intended to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, but not to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some technical features may be equivalently replaced; and such modifications or substitutions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the corresponding technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
