FPSO Experience Transfer

The FPSO Lessons Learned Database is a web database set up by the OLF FPSO Experience Transfer network. Please use menu options to the left to search in the database. For more information about the OLF, visit the OLF main page.

The FPSO (Floating Production, Storage and Offloading) Experience Transfer network is set up under the sponsorship of the OLF Operations Committee. The committee recognized in 2001 the need to capture lessons learned during several FPSO projects during the 1990s, and to gather experience from 20 operating years with FPSOs on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.

The workgroup has representation from the operators of the five Norwegian FPSOs, and two of the operators who have a close interest in FPSOs. A representative from the PSA also participates to assist with legislative and safety issues. The group is supported by an OLF sponsored facilitator and meets regularly.

The overall objective of the workgroup is to "To enable FPSO operators to learn from each other to improve operations and influence future designs". The 2002 work programme included projects:

  • to gather lessons learned from existing Norwegian FPSOs
  • to develop an OLF website for the sharing of FPSO lessons
  • to establish links with the UKOOA
  • to hold a seminar on topics of relevance to FPSO operators

The OLF FPSO Experience Transfer network initiated in 2003 a project to include experience from FPSO/FSUs Offshore loading and shuttle tankers in an effort to expand the experience transfer data base. The main objective was “to improve safety and operations in the interface between shuttle tanker and FPSO/FSUs”. This work is now summarized in a report available on this web site.

This website seeks to provide the user access to a wide range of FPSO lessons learned, links to other important FPSO websites and enables entry of lessons leaned by users interested in building a knowledge base for future designers and operators.
