As ocean resources in shallow water areas are being exhausted, deep sea development is becoming common these days. Therefore floating type offshore structures are more competitive than fixed type structures, and FPSO is the most popular one these days. FPSO's are generally operated in a specific region and positioned to meet mostly head or bow waves in order to reduce roll motions. However this makes these vessels more vulnerable to green water around the bow region, and therefore the bow shape must be properly designed to mitigate green water damage. In the present study, experimental results for three different FPSO bow shapes in regular head waves were analyzed and compared to each other. Also CFD computations were carried out as a sample validation case for the database built for CFD code validation.

Fuel gas compressor system is applied to medium FPSO. In order to avoid surge, this system used the anti-surge valves. When surge occurs it may lead to system's fracture. So anti-surge valves are evaluated structural strength and structural safety. Especially, in emergency mode, valves are must be guaranteed structural safety. In this study, structural strength and structural safety of anti-surge valve was evaluated using the numerical simulation. Unigraphics NX 4.0 was used as Geometrical models, structural strength and structural safety calculation were carried out by ANSYS Workbench 12.1. The ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code is refer to allowable strength and safety factor of the valves.

In this study, to avoid surging in the system as a way to ensure the proper discharge requires the design of the valve capacity rating objective is to develop a program. Approximation algorithm for the capacity evaluation is suggested. Loss coefficients obtained by the algorithm is calculated put in the governing equation for the valve flow coefficient and capacity. Calculated values were compared with numerical analysis results for the verifying their validity. The proven formula is created using Excel and it can be easily available the valve design engineers. Creation of analysis models were using a version of Unigraphics NX 4.0, numerical analysis were using a flow analysis commercial program ANSYS CFX 12.0 version. Equations were referenced 'Handbook of Hydraulic Resistance - 3rd Edition'.

Offshore oil production faces several difficulties caused by oil price decline and unexpected changes in the global petroleum logistics. This paper suggests a stochastic model for optimizing the offshore oil production under uncertainty. The proposed model incorporates robust optimization and restricted recourse framework, and uses the lower partial mean as the measure of variability of the recourse profit. Some computational experiments and results based on the proposed model using scenario-based data on the crude oil price and demand under uncertainty are examined and presented. This study would be meaningful in decision-making for the offshore oil production problem considering risks under uncertainty.

원유 또는 가스 생산을 위해 해상에 설치되는 플랜트 해양설비는 크게 jacket과 module로 나눌 수 있다. Jacket은 module을 지지하기 위한 구조물로써 jacket 본체와 pile로 구성되어 있으며, 미국용접학회(AWS)의 규정에 의해 대부분의 맞대기 완전용접 이음부(full penetration butt welds)에 대해 100% 방사선투과검사를 실시하게 되어 있다. 그러나 지금까지 방사선투과검사를 실시해 온 경험으로 미루어 볼 때 방사성에 대한 안전성, 생산공정의 영향(검사지연) 등 방사선투과검사는 많은 문제점을 가지고 있었다. 이에 대한 문제점을 해소하고, 국내의 비파괴검사 기술 향상을 위해 자동 초음파탐상 system을 개발, 방사선투과검사를 자동 초음파탐상검사로 대체하여 적용한 사례를 간략하게 기술하였다. 또한, 적용 확대를 위해 개방중인 system을 소개하고 아울러 자동 초음파탐상기술에 대한 앞으로의 방향을 제시하였다.

우리나라의 시설농업은 겨울철 난방에 소요되는 에너지원의 대부분을 수입에 의존하는 화석에너지를 이용하고 있다. 따라서 생산비중 난방비의 비중이 국제원유가의 상승에 비례하여 증가하므로서 농산물의 가격이 불안정하며, 결국에는 재배농민의 생산욕구를 저하시켜 농가소득의 감소를 초래하고 있는 실정이다. (중략)

플랜트란 산업 기계, 전기 통신 기계등 여러 가지를 생산하는 공장을 의미하고 있다. 해양플랜트는 바다위에 설치된 시설이라고 볼 수 있으며 주로 원유 및 가스를 채취하여 시중에서 사용할 수 있도록 정유공정까지 거치는 대규모 설비라고 할 수 있다. 따라서 가연성 물질을 생산, 적재함으로 화재 및 폭발의 위험성이 상존하며 화재가 발생하면 인화성 물질로 인한 대규모 화재와 폭발로 인하여 인명과 재산피해의 규모 또한 가름하기가 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 해양플랜트 화재시 화재와 폭발 두 가지 위험성 중 제트화재에 저항을 가지는 기자재를 평가할 수 있는 ISO 22899-1 시험방법과 설비에 대하여 설명하고자 한다.

합성가스는 C1화학을 시작하는 반응원료 물질로 최근 DME(dimethyl-ether), 메탄올, GTL(gas to liquid), CTL(coal to liquid), 암모니아 생성 공정 등 많은 화학공정에 사용되고 있다. 합성가스를 생산하는 방법은 천연가스 개질반응과 석탄의 가스화반응, 그리고 원유의 정제 등을 통해 얻을 수 있다. 삼중개질반응은 천연가스와 산소, 수증기, 이산화탄소를 원료로 $1000^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온에서 반응시켜 합성가스를 생산하며, 균일반응계와 불균일반응계로 이루어져 있다. 균일반응계에서는 천연가스와 산소가 주로 반응하며, 원료로 투입된 대부분의 산소는 균일반응계에서 소모되어 일산화탄소와 이산화탄소를 생성한다. 삼중개질반응의 균일반응계에서는 산소와 천연가스와의 반응으로 많은 발열이 발생하여 전체 반응계의 온도를 유지할 수 있도록 해준다. 본 연구에서는 산소로 인한 삼중개질반응의 온도 조절과 균일반응계의 온도 분포를 위치에 따라 관찰해 보았으며, 실험과 모사를 통해 비교해 보았다.

The objective of this study was investigate the characteristic of biosurfactant produced from the iso-lated strain. The strain was isolated from soli samples of Duck-Yu Mountain and it was identified as Bacillus atrophaeus DYL-130 by 16S rDNA and gyrA gene nucleotide sequence analysis. The surface ten-sion of culture filtrate of Bacillus atrophaeus DYL-130 decreased to 28 mN/m and its biosurfactant con-centration was determined by diluting the culture filtrate until the critical micelle concentration (CMC). The emulsifying activity and stability of crude biosurfactant was measured by using water-immiscible hydrocarbons and oils as substrate. The biosurfactant was purified by affinity chromatography and the surface activity of purified biosurfactant was measured by drop-collapsing method and it could be effectively emulsify toluene.
