Options to be selected are proposed for the mooring system deployed for a floating-storage-and-offloading (FSO) vessel. The vessel and affiliated installations form a product crude oil exporting facility. Each option is comparatively evaluated against the relevant agenda which is important from view points of facility operation and maintenance. Options for the mooring system include the turret, jacket, and buoy single-point mooring (SPM) systems as well as the spread mooring system. There is no one options which is a one-fit-all agenda for the mooring system. Other generalized conclusions are also presented.
