2. For fender reaction, it is proposed to consider effect of fender friction in upward, downward, right and left direction in jetty
structural design. Fender friction coefficient as per vendor recommendation is proposed to be adopted otherwise fender friction
coefficient of 0.5 can be used.
3. For bollard tension, it is proposed to consider the worst case mooring line angle (vertical and horizontal as per applicable code
and standard) in jetty structural design.
4. Since the jetty operation is designed based on specific limiting weather criteria as described in Section 4.2, therefore, if the
weather criteria is exceeded, it proposed the vessel shall leave the berth.

6.0 DESIGN CRITERIA


The main objective of the analysis is limited to the generation of loads on fenders and
bollards where DnV criteria (Ref.[2]) shall be adopted. Since the mooring case is
considered to be “temporary mooring system”, therefore only two (2) limit states shall
be considered as per the following.
1. Intact condition/ultimate limit state (ULS) to ensure that the individual mooring
lines have adequate strength to withstand the load effects imposed by
extreme/limiting weather/environmental actions.
2. Damage condition/Accidental limit state (ALS) to ensure that the mooring
system has adequate capacity to withstand the failure of one mooring line for
unknown reasons.
For berthing, criteria as per COMPANY requirement and British Standard (Ref. [5])
shall be applied.

7.0 METHODOLOGY AND SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION


7.1 3D Time Domain Analysis
Time domain simulation allows non-linearity for all terms in the equation of motion.
Both high frequency and low frequency wave excitations are applied simultaneously
in the time domain. In a simplified form, the equation of motions for a mooring system
with six degrees of freedom in waves can be expressed as follows

∑ {( ) ̈ ̇ }
for i= 1~6
and
F  Fm  Fw  Fl
where;
x = displacement matrix
M = mass matrix
a = added mass
c = hydrostatic stiffness matrix, exist only for heave roll and pitch component
F = force matrix include wind, current, first & second order wave forces
Fm = steady (mean) component of force
Fw = wave frequency component of force
Fl = low frequency component of force
In coupled numerical mooring analysis, there is a direct coupling between all
dynamic loads in the mooring system and the wave frequency and low frequency
vessel motions, thus the mooring system is not only applying restoring force, but it
can also apply damping and inertia type loads on vessel.
7.2 Analysis Methodology
The mooring analysis was performed in two phases. First phase relates to analysis
performed with software MOSES to obtain the motion responses of the vessels.
Second phase relates to the coupled time domain analysis performed with marine
dynamic software Visual OrcaFlex, with the motion responses obtained from First
phase.
First phase. The barge responses were obtained from a 3D Diffraction theory
analysis. The vessels hull form was modelled to full scale as a refined mesh with
panels representing the hull surface. Increasing the number of panels will reduce the
inaccuracies in the calculated responses, especially at higher frequencies (shorter
wave lengths). As a rule of thumb, for satisfactory numerical results the maximum
panel length dimension should not be greater than 20% of the shortest studied wave
length.
Hydrostatic analysis was performed on the model to derive the condition,
displacement, centre of buoyancy, waterplane area, centre of floatation, and the
metacentric heights.
Further information like the wetted surface area, the load to change draft and the
moment to trim were also computed. These results were validated with the stability
booklet of the proposed vessel for accuracies.

Upon validation of the hydrostatic results, a Hydrodynamic analysis, a set of velocity


potentials on each panel, which results from the interaction of the panel with the sea,
was performed to generate the pressure database.
The first six of these velocity potentials arise due to unit motion of the body, at a
given frequency, in each of the degrees of freedom. These are called radiation
velocity potentials. The remaining potentials result from a wave being stopped by the
body. These are called diffraction potentials. The diffraction potentials depend not
only on wave frequency but also on wave heading. All of the potentials are complex
numbers (a real and an imaginary part for each potential).
The required motion responses were then calculated based on the pressure
database. The response obtained includes Response Amplitude Operators (RAO),
Quadratic Transfer Functions (QTF), Added Mass and Damping Forces.
Second phase. Second phase involves the analysis of a fully integrated 3D, finite
element, coupled time domain dynamic mooring system model as illustrated in Figure
6-1. The model implicitly and actively accounts for all contributions from the mooring
lines to the behaviour and response of the entire system. Contribution includes added
mass, damping, system stiffness, mean and low frequency hydrodynamic forces of
the mooring system, which varies with time, water depth and direction. The wind area
of above deck structure such as accommodation deck, crane structures, etc. is
considered by inputting the area in the model.
The vessels were modelled as a rigid body whose motions are prescribed by a set of
motion responses derived from the 3D Diffraction theory analysis. The vessel
responds to wave at two distinct frequencies. The first frequency corresponds to the
wave frequency and is caused by an applied wave load that is linear function of the
wave amplitude. The first frequency motion is modelled as a set of forced response
amplitude operators (RAOs).
The second frequency corresponds to the system’s natural frequency, which is
typically quite different from the wave frequency, and is caused by an applied load
proportional to the square of the wave amplitude. Although this load is second order
in nature and therefore quite small, the response of the system is generally amplified,
since the load occurs near the natural frequency of the mooring system. The second
frequency term are quadratic terms and are made up of three terms, as follows.

 Difference frequency terms, which have frequencies given by the differences


between combinations of different wave component frequencies.
 A constant frequency term, called the mean wave drift force. This term is really
the limiting case of the difference frequency term when the two frequencies are
equal.
 Sum frequency terms, which have frequencies given by the sums of
combinations of wave component frequencies.
The constant and difference terms are collectively known as the wave drift loads and
these are modelled as quadratic transfer functions (QTF). The constant term is
applied both in the static and dynamic analyses. The difference frequency terms are
only included in the dynamic analysis. The sum frequency terms are not included in
the analysis, since they are high frequency terms whose effect on a moored vessel is
normally negligible.

Another important source of damping occurs in a moored vessel in the form of drag
loads, also known as vessel slow drift. The drag load appears in two forms, the
hydrodynamic drag loads and the wind drag loads. Hydrodynamic and wind drag
loads on a vessel are square law loads due to the relative velocity of the fluid past the
vessel. The drag forces and moments due to translational motion are modelled using
the standard OCIMF method.
While damping plays an insignificant role in the motion at the wave frequency, it is
key deterrent to the motion at the natural frequency. A moored system experiences
damping from two natural sources, material and hydrodynamic. The material
damping is generally small and is ignored in the analysis. Therefore, it is assumed
that the resonant response of the moored floating vessel is limited only by the
hydrodynamic damping present in the system. This hydrodynamic damping appears
in the form of linear radiation damping, linear viscous damping and nonlinear viscous
damping. The damping and added mass were modelled as six-by-six (6x6) matrices
derived from 3D Diffraction theory analysis at the natural frequency of the vessel.
Mooring lines were modelled explicitly, taking into account of their 3D catenaries
shape and all the inherent material and structural non-linearity, under environmental
and external loading using the finite element technique. The mooring configuration
was referred to British Standard Ref. [5].

7.3 Software Description


MOSES
MOSES is a software system for hydrostatic and hydrodynamic analysis of all types
of offshore platforms and vessels. It is widely used for simulating and analysing
transportation and installation of offshore structures as well as performing design and
in-place calculations on floating offshore systems.
Using the flexible and customizable MOSES Language, naval architects and offshore
engineers can complete hydrostatic, hydrodynamic, mooring and structural
simulations of all types of offshore operations, including loadout, transportation,
lifting, launching, upending, and float over. MOSES can also be used to predict the
in-place performance of moored systems such as FPSOs and floating platforms. The
integrated nature of the MOSES solver improves efficiency and reduces the risk of
error when compared with the traditional approach of using multiple packages to
analyse the separate components of a project.
The choice of offshore engineers worldwide, MOSES has been used for projects
installing and designing offshore structures, including Jackets, Topsides, FPSOs,
Spars, TLPs, Semi-submersibles, Wind Turbines, and other platforms. Capabilities
include: combined 3D diffraction, panel, and Morison element modelling; hydrostatic
and hydrodynamic analysis of multiple, arbitrary shaped floating bodies; analysis and
design of mooring lines, risers, and lifting slings; multi-body hydrodynamic
interactions; hydrodynamic analysis in both the frequency and time domains; and
jacket launching.
MOSES can import SACS structures, whether cargo or topsides, and include their
mass in stability and motions calculations. MOSES data export facilities allow easy
post-processing of results in Excel and other programs.

OrcaFlex
OrcaFlex is the world’s leading package developed by Orcina for the dynamic
analysis of offshore marine systems. It performs both static and dynamic analysis of
a wide range of offshore systems, including all types of marine risers (rigid and
flexible), global analysis, moorings, installation and towed systems.
OrcaFlex provides fast and accurate analysis of catenary systems such as flexible
risers and umbilical cables under wave and current loads and externally imposed
motions. OrcaFlex makes extensive use of graphics to assist understanding. The
program can be operated in batch mode for routine analysis work and there are also
special facilities for post-processing your results including fully integrated fatigue
analysis capabilities.

8.0 RESULT
8.1 Mooring Analysis
Mooring analysis was carried out based on design criteria for the mooring system to
withstand the load effects imposed by the extreme/limiting criteria environment action,
known as Intact condition requirements (ultimate limit state; ULS), and to withstand
the failure of one mooring line, known as the damage condition requirements
(accidental limit state; ALS).
The ULS addresses the situation assuming all mooring lines in the system are intact.
The analysis involves simulation of coupled motion and tension responses of the
mooring system. The ALS address the situation assuming one mooring line is
assumed to have failed in severe weather and considers the mooring system
response to the same environmental condition. This was achieved by simulating the
ULS case, which has resulted in the particular mooring line generating maximum
tension. This line is released at a pre-determined time at the fairlead location to
