OFFSHORE ACCOMMODATION
SEANOVA LQ PERMANENT LIVING QUARTERS ACCOMMODATION
SeaNova is a multipurpose Minimum Facilities Platform (MFP) that can be configured for Oil & Gas production (SeaNova), as a sub-station (SeaNode) or a permanent Living Quarter’s accommodation SeaNova LQ)
KNOWN COSTS AND FIXED ON CONTRACT The Ocean Resource MFP series is free standing and self installing, therefore it is fully built and configured in dock, prior to being floated on its buoyant Gravity Base Structure (GBS) and towed out by standard offshore tugs for deployment; little or no sea bed preparation is required meaning that construction and deployment costs are known to the client and fixed on contract.
REMOVAL AND RE-DEPLOYMENT
A feature of considerable advantage is SeaNova LQ’s ability to be easily and cheaply removed and re-deployed, making it particularly attractive to the sequential development of arrays or multiple areas
SPECIFICATIONS
The Ocean Resource MFP can be designed with a top side weight of up to 9000 tonnes for operation in waters of up to 120
metres. SeaNova LQ can be scaled as required, but in the North and Irish Seas, the platform will typically be configured to provide accommodation modules, helideck and associated services to support 100 personnel in permanent living quarters. Such an MFP unit would have an applied loading of less than 2000 tonnes and would be initially built and deployed turnkey for circa £15M, and then redeployed later for less than £500K each time. Major refits and through life servicing would be accomplished back in port.
ARE YOU PREPARED FOR SUDDEN CARDIAC ARREST WHILST LIVING OFFSHORE?
Sudden Cardiac Arrest occurs when an electrical malfunction in the heart causes it to stop pumping blood causing uncontrolled quivering of the heart chambers, leading to unconsciousness and death in minutes. The only effective treatment for a Sudden Cardiac Arrest is immediate CPR and defibrillation. An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a small, lightweight device which shocks the heart back into a normal rhythm. The use of an AED, within the first three minutes of an arrest, can increase a victim’s chance of survival from 6% to 74%.
PREPAREDNESS
Sudden Cardiac Arrest does not discriminate and it can affect anyone, anywhere, anytime regardless of age, gender and fitness levels. It is vital that the equipment and relevant training is in place to deal with an emergency should one occur.
Offshore accommodation is often isolated and difficult to reach. Although emergency response plans should be in place, quite often there will not be enough time to provide the patient with the immediate care they require.
Consideration of distance and time to emergency care is necessary, more importantly for those living offshore for sustained periods of time.
TIME FACTORS After a patient has collapsed from Sudden Cardiac Arrest, or after suffering a heart attack, they lose between 10% and 14% of their chance of survival every minute. After ten minutes, the opportunity to resuscitate
