Sustainability
This paper explores the application of a modular, high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactor to a Very Large Crude Carrier-class floating production, storage, and offloading vessel.
This paper describes the potential of combined-cycle technology (use of a gas turbine and a steam turbine together to turn fuel into electricity) in offshore carbon-capture applications.
This paper uses the structural-integrity-management framework to evaluate the current structural integrity of chosen platforms, highlighting their potential and limitations for carbon capture, use, and storage purposes based on in-service assessments.
