with Octabuoy Production Platforms

Octabuoy Classic
The Octabuoy Classic is the ultimate semi-submersible. Able to serve as a dry tree unit even in harsh environmental conditions, it can also accommodate complete drilling facilities. Based on proven principles and technology developed over three decades of experience, this deep-draft floater is designed specifically for dry wellheads and steel catenary risers.

  • Superior alternative to SPARs and TLPs.
  • Superb motion characteristics
  • Flexibility in riser configurations
  • Drilling and workover options
  • Oil storage in hull
  • Conventional installation methods; can be integrated quayside
  • Flexible deck structure facilitates subcontracting for local content provisions
  • Can be relocated and re-used for several field applications

Octabuoy SDM
The Octabuoy Shallow Draft Mooring (SDM) assisted production platform is a novel combination of established fabrication methods. It was introduced to the market after years of extensive quantitative analysis and model testing to verify its maturity, viability, and cost-effectiveness for field developments worldwide. Its hull shape and specially-tuned mooring system provide improved heave motion characteristics.  

  • Flexible and scalable for future field expansions
  • Minimum vortex-induced motions/vibrations
  • Superior motions for steel catenary risers or wet/dry tree applications
  • Suitable for both large and marginal fields
  • Deck and topsides can be integrated with the hull at the shipyard
  • Superior topside carrying capacity
  • Drilling and workover options
  • Conventional fabrication and installation methods ensure competitive cost
