Okwori (NGOKW)

Formerly known as Okwori Terminal, comprising FPSO 'Sendje Berge', 274,333DWT, located in about 138m of water and fixed moored in a twelve point spread mooring system on a bow heading of 022.5° in position 03°51.145'N 006°58.787'E.

Tropical.

Okwori Terminal is located approx 30nm off the S coast of Nigeria, in the Gulf of Guinea.

Offshore: LOA 274m, 157,747DWT.

Located within a radius of 1.5nm centred on position 03°51'N 007°04'E. Note: Be aware of shallow gas hazards when anchoring in the area.

The export tanker should proceed to anchorage or waiting area for berthing instructions from the terminal.

BA 1386. Admiralty Pilot NP1, NP286(8).

The hold back tug will be made fast, using the tug's line, at the stern of the export tanker in a safe area before commencing the final approach to the FPSO. A mooring line and chain stopper is to be ready aft to pick up the towing wire from the holdback tug, which will be secured on the 200t SWL escort tug arrangement at the stern. The shackle on the eye of the towing wire must be slacked back so that it does not lie between the eye of the wire and the bitts. The hold back tug will then payout the towing wire to about 300m. This tug, as directed by the export tanker's Master on advice by the Mooring Master, will maintain sufficient tension on gear to prevent the export tanker from riding up to the FPSO bow while berthing. The second tug will be wither used in a pushing mode, or on a line connected to the bow of the export tanker as determined by the Mooring Master in consultation with the tanker Master. Hose Handling: After the export tanker has been securely moored, 1 x 16in floating cargo hose will be connected to her port side manifold. The cargo hose is fitted with a 16in Camlock type coupling. The port cargo hose derrick/crane of the export tanker must have at least 15t SWL and should be rigged and centred over the manifold prior to berthing. Connection of the cargo hose shall be carried out by the export tanker crew under the supervision of a licensed Deck Officer acting on the advice of the Assistant Loading/Mooring Master supplied by the Terminal.

Compulsory and provided by the Mooring Master who boards 3.25nm ENE of the FPSO. Vessel scheduled to load at the terminal will be boarded by Mooring/Loading Master, either at the anchorage/waiting area, approx 3nm E of the terminal, or where directed. All manoeuvring of vessels within the terminal is to be done only on advice of a Terminal Mooring/Loading Master. Masters of the export vessels, however, shall remain solely responsible for the safe and proper manoeuvring of their vessels.

Mooring operations are restricted to daylight hours only, 0600-1800hrs. Export tankers scheduled to berth on arrival should arrive at the pilot station, no later than 1600hrs to allow time for inward clearance prior to commencement of mooring operation; if not, the vessel will be requested to anchor/wait for further instructions. Unmooring operations may be carried out at any time. Mooring will normally not be attempted under any of the following conditions: ..... 1. One hour sustained wind speed: 30kts 2. Significant wave height: 3.0m 3. Surface current: 1.8kts. All directions 4. Surface current: 1.0kts setting WSW via S to SSE 5. Visibility 1nm Cargo Tank Protection: Tankers nominated to load condensate will have an operative Inert Gas system and are to have their tank's inerted with an oxygen content of below 5% volume before any cargo operations commence. A safety zone, radius 0.27nm, exists around the Okwori FPSO. Vessels are not permitted to enter this zone without permission from the OIM (Offshore Installation Manager) or his deputy.

Current: Usually sets E, however, the direction and rate have been known to change suddenly.

There are 2 tugs available to assist mooring arrangements.

Prevailing winds: SW'ly to W'ly. During May-Sep and are at their strongest average between 25-35kts. Line squalls are prevalent between Mar and Nov.
