Hyundai Heavy Industries held a naming ceremony for the Usan FPSO, the world's largest floating production storage and offloading facility. The Usan FPSO can refine 160,000 barrels of oil and 5 million cubic meters of gas daily. It has storage for 2 million barrels of oil. The facility is 320m long, 61m wide, 32m high and weighs 116,000 tons. HHI's FPSOs are preferred in the offshore industry as they are easy to install and do not require pipelines to export oil and gas.
Attending the naming ceremony were HHI chief operating officer Kang Chang-june, Total executive director for external affairs John Addeh, and 300 guests. The $1.7 billion FPSO was ordered by French supermajor Total in February 2008. |
