By utilizing Finite Element Analysis and adhering to international standards like the American Petroleum Institute’s RP WSD guidelines, Trelleborg ensured that the LMU met strength and stability criteria, a testament to its robust engineering capabilities and design expertise.
A full-scale testing was conducted at Trelleborg's Singapore testing facility using the 183MT test press to validate the design and confirm the system's viability. This groundbreaking test was the first of its kind and aimed to ensure the product's performance and compliance with relevant standards and customer specifications by testing the design calculations and prototype against the actual product application. Overall, using the Leg Mating Unit (LMU) equipped with the sandcan system proved to be a game-changer for the floatover installation of the 30,000MT topside onto the hull.
With a proven track record in addressing challenges in offshore oil and gas, Trelleborg brings the necessary engineering expertise and longevity essential for this project.
