Structural Reliability Based Dynamic Positioning of Turret-Moored FPSOs in Extreme Seas

FPSO is widely used during the deep-sea oil and gas exploration operations, for which it is an effective way to keep their position by means of positioning mooring (PM) technology to ensure the long-term reliability of operations, even in extreme seas. Here, a kind of dynamic positioning (DP) contro...
