                              swivel on turret
                              manually operated water jets and foam applicators
                                   The capacity of the main fire water pump is estimated for
                            the worst event, i.e. a cargo fire, requiring simultaneous operation
                            of the following.
                               foam system
                               process deluge system

                               two water jets
                            Fuel Oil System
                                   A  diesel  oil  system  serves  the  various  machinery  on  the
                            vessel, comprising the following main components:
                                   Fuel oil storage tanks
                                   Piping  from  the  filling  station  on  the  main  deck  to  the
                            storage tanks
                                   One settling tank with a capacity of approx. 40 m3
                                   Two fuel oil transfer pumps (one as standby)
                                   One fuel oil purifier
                                   One pre-heater
                            7.4.6.6 Offloading
                                   Cargo offloading can be arranged through several  means,
                            either direct transfer. i.e. FPSO to shuttle tanker through:
                                         Offloading reel
                                         Trailing hose
                                         Loading buoy
                                   or indirectly through a permanently moored attending FSO.
                                   A  typical  stern  mounted  offloading  reel  system  is  shown
                            (fig. 4.9). The reel typically stores approximately 110 meters of 16
                            inch diameter bore flexible offloading hose string. The reel stores
                            the  hose  between  offloadings.  Transfer  rates  are  approximately
                                    3
                            4000  m /hour  (600,000  bbls  in  24  hours)  from  the  FPSO  to  a
                            shuttle tanker moored approximately 80 meters astern.
                                   The offloading reel is driven by multiple hydraulic motors
                            which  allows  for  satisfactory  operation  of  the  system  even  with
                            one motor out of action.
                                   Connection between the vessels is made without the need
                            to transfer personnel or use of a support vessel.
                                   This can  be achieved  via two methods, either  by  firing a
                            line to the shuttle tanker and transferring the messenger line, chafe
