33、 hybrid riser system are a vertical, or catenary, steel riser(s) tensioned by a near subsurface buoyancy tank, and a flexible jumper connecting the riser(s) to a floater. The vertical, or catenary, riser(s) may be anchored to the seabed using a foundation pile or connected to a flowline end terminat

34、ion (FLET) directly. A hybrid riser system may be installed before or after the Floating Production Installation (referred to herein as an FPI, or floater) is moored on site; (e.g., a Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) installation). The risers own weight is supported by the buoyancy

35、tank, resulting in lower reactions on the floater. The flexible jumper allows the riser to be substantially decoupled from the floaters motions, which makes the riser fatigue response typically insensitive to the floaters motions. A hybrid riser system configuration combines the features of tensione

36、d and compliant risers in an efficient manner. Most proposed designs are based on combining a self-supporting vertical riser column (e.g., by means of a buoyancy tank) with a flexible jumper at the upper end for connection to a floater. However hybrid risers tend to be very complex structural system

37、s with special design challenges for both in-situ conditions as well as during the installation phase. Hybrid riser systems are a field-proven concept; they have been installed in the Gulf of Mexico, offshore Brazil and offshore West Africa. Hybrid riser systems have been installed in water depths r

38、anging from 1,500 ft. to over 8,600 ft. Hybrid riser systems can be associated with any floater type. Typically such systems have been used with floating production installations (FPIs) as this takes advantage of one of the hybrid riser systems best aspects, which is its ability to decouple the rigi

39、d riser system from the FPIs motions. This decoupling can reduce the necessity of using a vessel with enhanced motion-performance. 3 Description of Hybrid Riser Systems 3.1 General Although there are different versions of hybrid riser systems, and their configurations have been modified through the

40、years, the key technical benefit of this concept remains that the major rigid vertical, or catenary, riser is isolated from the FPI using an upper flexible jumper as a connection. The rigid riser is thus substantially decoupled from FPI motion. So far, the hybrid riser system concepts that have been

41、 developed are as follows: Hybrid Riser Tower (HRT) Single Line Hybrid Riser (SLHR) Tension Leg Riser (TLR) Hybrid S Riser System (HySR) Hybrid Catenary Riser (HCR) ABSGUIDANCE NOTES ON SUBSEA HYBRID RISER SYSTEMS .2017 1 Section 1 Introduction 3.3 Hybrid Riser Tower Type (or Hybrid Tower Riser) The

42、 riser tower consists of a center core tubular surrounded by production, water injection, and service lines internal or external to the bundle, either fully enclosed or attached on the periphery of the syntactic foam buoyancy module. The vertical column of the riser tower normally consists of a bund

43、le of steel risers. A buoyancy tank at the top provides the required tension, and syntactic buoyancy units along the length reduce the wet weight and may also provide insulation if riser pipes are enclosed within. The upper end of the vertical column is connected to the FPI by multiple flexible jump

44、ers. The tower type has been used for deepwater fields mainly in West Africa, although the first riser tower was installed in the Gulf of Mexico. All these riser towers were fabricated onshore, towed to sites and upended. A typical HRT consists of the following components: Top Flexible Jumper(s) Buo

45、yancy Tank Top Riser Assembly (TRA including Gooseneck Assembly) Continuous Riser Bundle Section Bottom Riser Assembly (BRA) Bottom Connector (e.g., latch type connector) Riser Tower Anchor Rigid Jumper Spool connection to FLETs 3.5 Single Line Hybrid Riser Type A single line hybrid riser (SLHR) con

46、sists of a vertical rigid pipe anchored to the seabed via a foundation (e.g., suction pile) and tensioned by means of a near-surface buoyancy tank that provides the required uplift force. For the SLHR, one flexible jumper connects the rigid riser via a gooseneck to the FPI. The connection of the ris

47、er to seabed is by means of mechanical connector (e.g., latch type connector or taper joint). A riser base jumper, either flexible or rigid, connects BRA and FLET. A typical SLHR concept is illustrated in Section 1, Figure 1. Such a vertical rigid riser pipe can be installed using either J-lay or Re

48、el-lay. There are several different names of SLHR, for example, single line (or leg) offset riser (SLOR), single top tension riser (STTR), single line free standing hybrid riser (SLFSHR), free standing hybrid riser (FSHR), and single line (or leg) hybrid riser. SLHR broadly includes the pipe in pipe

49、 (PIP) hybrid riser system as well. 2 ABSGUIDANCE NOTES ON SUBSEA HYBRID RISER SYSTEMS .2017 Section 1 Introduction FIGURE 1 Illustration of an SLHR FPSOTurretTop Riser JumperUpper Flexible JointBuoyancy TankTop Riser AssemblyFoundationRiser Base JumperRiser PipeBottom Riser AssemblyLower Flexible JointFlowlineGooseneckA typical SLHR is composed of the following components, as shown in Section 1, Figure 1 above: Top riser jumper (or jumpers for PIP) Umbilical (optional) Top riser jumper connector Buoyancy Tank (BT) Tether Chain/Flexible joint
