14、n SECTION 1 Introduction 1 General (1 June 2016) The requirements for conditions of Classification for the entire units and offshore structures are contained in the ABS Rules for Conditions of Classification Offshore Units and Structures (Part 1). Additional requirements specific to pre-laid station

15、keeping systems are contained in this Guide. The provisions of this Guide apply to mobile offshore units operating with pre-laid stationkeeping systems. Section 2 of this Guide provides the technical requirements for the optional symbol: (P-PL) (Position (pre-laid) mooring systems) for mobile offsho

16、re units. Section 3 of this Guide provides the survey requirements for the optional symbols: (P-PL) (Position (pre-laid) mooring systems) and (M-PL) (Position (pre-laid) mooring equipment) for mobile offshore units. Section 4 of this Guide provides the technical requirements for the optional notatio

17、ns: TAM-PL (Automatic position control system) and TAM-PL (Manual) (Manual position control system) for mobile offshore units. Section 5 of this Guide provide the survey requirements for the optional notations: TAM-PL (Automatic position control system) and TAM-PL (Manual) (Manual position control s

18、ystem) for mobile offshore units. At the request of the Owners, the pre-laid stationkeeping systems may be verified for compliance with the provisions of Sections 2 through 5 as applicable, with the appropriate class symbol or notation assigned. 3 Position (Pre-laid) Mooring Systems When requested b

19、y the Owner, ABS will certify the position (pre-laid) mooring capability of the unit in accordance with the requirements outlined in Section 2 of this Guide. A unit so certified for position mooring may be designated in the Record by the symbol (P-PL) placed after the symbols of classification in th

20、e Record, thus: null A1 (P-PL). 5 Position (Pre-laid) Mooring Equipment When requested by the Owner, the symbol (M-PL) may be placed after the symbols of classification in the Record, thus: null A1 (M-PL), which will signify that the mooring equipment, chain or wire rope (carried onboard the unit) w

21、hich have been specified by the Owner for position (pre-laid) mooring have been tested in accordance with the specifications of the Owner and in the presence of a Surveyor. 7 Thruster-Assisted Mooring Systems (Automatic or Manual Position Control System) (1 June 2016) When requested by the Owner, AB

22、S will certify the TAM (pre-laid) capability of the unit in accordance with the requirements outlined in this Guide. TAM (pre-laid) systems, which are fitted with a TA system that is capable of automatically maintaining the position and heading of the unit under specified maximum environmental condi

23、tions having an independent centralized manual position control with automatic heading control that have been built, installed and commissioned to the satisfaction of the Surveyors to the full requirements of this Guide, where approved by the Committee for service for the specified design environmen

24、tal conditions, will be classed and distinguished in the ABS Record by the notation null A1 (TAM-PL). ABSGUIDE FOR THE CLASSIFICATION OF PRE-LAID STATIONKEEPING SYSTEMS FOR MOBILE OFFSHORE UNITS .2016 1 Section 1 Introduction TAM (pre-laid) systems, which are fitted with a TA system with centralized

25、 manual position control and automatic heading control to maintain the position and heading under specified maximum environmental conditions that have been built, installed and commissioned to the satisfaction of the Surveyors to the full requirements of this Guide, where approved by the Committee f

26、or service for the specified design environmental conditions, will be classed and distinguished in the ABS Record by the notation null A1 (TAM-PL) (Manual). This notation assumes continuous attention of a TA operator. The symbol “null” (Maltese-Cross) signifies that the system was built, installed a

27、nd commissioned to the satisfaction of the Bureau Surveyors. TAM systems (with pre-laid mooring components and accessories) that have not been built under ABS survey, but which are submitted for Classification, will be subjected to special consideration. Where found satisfactory and thereafter appro

28、ved by the Committee, it will be classed and distinguished in the Record by the notation described above, but the symbol “null” signifying survey during construction will be omitted. 9 Definitions (1 June 2016) Position (pre-laid) mooring system. Position (pre-laid) mooring system is defined as a po

29、sition mooring system without the complete set of mooring equipment, anchors, chains or wire rope being carried onboard the unit. Typically mooring equipment and components carried onboard a unit designed for position (pre-laid) mooring will be the winches/windlasses and top chain or wire rope. Pre-

30、laid mooring. Pre-laid mooring is defined as mooring components and accessories other than those carried onboard the unit. It typically consists of anchors, piles, chain, cable, buoys and other appurtenances that are installed at the offshore location in advance of the arrival of the unit to assist

31、in its stationkeeping. Thrusters. Thrusters are devices capable of delivering side thrust or thrusts through 360 to improve the vessels maneuverability, particularly in confined waters. For more details, refer to 4-3-5/1.5 of the ABS Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels (Steel Vessel Rules)

32、. Thrust Assist (TA) System. Thrust assist system is a hydro-dynamic system which utilizes thrusters and dynamic positioning capability to assist the mooring system in controlling or maintaining the position and heading of the vessel by centralized manual control or by automatic response to the vari

33、ations of the environmental conditions within the specified limits. TAM (pre-laid) System. Position (pre-laid) mooring system integrated with TA system. Specified Maximum Environmental Conditions. The specified maximum environmental conditions are the specified wind speed, current and wave height un

34、der which the unit is designed to carry out intended operations. 11 Plans and Particulars to be Submitted (1 June 2016) 11.1 For (P-PL) Symbol For the (P-PL) symbol, the following plans are to be submitted to ABS: Arrangement and complete details of the mooring components and equipment that are carr

35、ied onboard the unit including their foundations and attachments to the unit A sample mooring analysis describing method of load calculations and analysis of dynamic system to determine the mooring line design loads, assumed mooring system configuration including arrangement of pre-laid mooring comp

36、onents and accessories Specifications and calculations for the mooring components and equipment that are carried onboard the unit Operations Manual which should clearly distinguish the mooring components and equipment that are classed under ABS from pre-laid mooring components that are assumed at th

37、e offshore location. 2 ABSGUIDE FOR THE CLASSIFICATION OF PRE-LAID STATIONKEEPING SYSTEMS FOR MOBILE OFFSHORE UNITS .2016 Section 1 Introduction 11.3 For TAM-PL and TAM-PL (Manual) Notations For the TAM-PL and TAM-PL (Manual) notations, the following plans are to be submitted to ABS: General arrange
