Vessel Icing on the Shtokman FPSO
Master's thesis in Offshore Technology The purpose of this report is to investigate the phenomenon of vessel icing in general and examine the problem for the Shtokman FPSO, which is now being designed to operate in severe conditions in the Barents Sea. Ice properties, icing conditions and inten...
