Floating Production

Due to an increase in deep water production projects, a key technology that has emerged is the use of FPSO (floating production, storage and offloading) vessels are rather large in size and complexity. Internal turret mooring systems allow FPSOs to remain on location permanently, even in very harsh environmental conditions, and allow the vessel to be disconnected from its moorings to avoid severe weather, sea conditions and icebergs. Our OmniSeal^® seals with back-up rings handle these larger diameter sealing systems with ease.
