SeaStar TLP Tendons
- Tubular steel elements fabricated from well understood, high-yield materials
- Multiple, mechanically coupled sections
- 200 percent inspection with zero tolerance for material flaws
- Design fatigue life typically exceeds 1000 years, well beyond the API-required 200 years
- Tendon pairs have redundancy
- Tendons are neutrally buoyant to improve hull efficiency
- Fairings are installed on the tendons to prevent vortex-induced vibrations
- Field Development Scenarios
Dry trees, wet trees, FPSOs, and more
