Conversion of tanker into h lift lheavylift vessel
OFFSHOREDAGEN 2009John Riis og Reidar Berthelsen
This is Inocean
Background
Project: Basic design for conversion of six of Suezmax tankers (Split series) to Heavylift vessels
Client: Frontline Management
Project start: January 2006
MSA Approval: 1.april 2006!

What is a Heavylift vessel?
Scope of work
• Complete class documentation all diciplines
• Conversion specification• General arrangementGeneral arrangement• Lines plan• MSA drawings new-built cargo
part• Steel design for modifications• Steel design for modifications
on existing part• Welding plan • Ballast system
Ai d d i k• Air vent and drain tank system• Electro, New main switchboard
documentation • Intact and damaged stability
Main challenges
• Execution time!!!• Design basis not settled g• Inexperienced yard • Structural integrity of aft section of shipStructural integrity of aft section of ship• Damage stability• 100% Tank filling100% Tank filling

• Minimize plate replacement• Use buckling stiffeners where possible
Avoided replacement of LBHD plating in aft ship, with use of torsion box and disconnected 3rd. pl. dk.

Lessons Learned
• Focus on one niche, and translate this to design criterias.
• Global strength analysis of hull girder, key to arrive at simple strengthening concept.
• Project success in Cosco shipyard depends on the site team.
• Dedicated small team, is an effective model for fast track execution.
• Conversions also benefit from ”series effect”
