Exxon's deepwater production terminal, applicable for use in water depths to over 5000 ft. and in rough weather environments, consists of an SALM (Single Anchor Leg Mooring) production riser and a floating storage tanker with production facilities on board. The separated gas and water are disposed of by reinjection into the formation. Shuttle tankers offload the crude oil by tandem mooring to the storage tanker. This paper describes the broad concepts of the riser system including the design criteria. Exxon has conducted extensive model tests and analyses on this system to assess its feasibility and has designed several SALM systems for various parts of the world. The design of a new structural system requires establishing design criteria consistent with good engineering practice and safety considerations. The Exxon riser system design criteria has been developed using established codes and emerging code requirements for offshore loading terminals modified to fit the functional and structural characteristics of the Exxon SALM.
