FSO Nanhai Sheng Kai

The FSO Nan Hai Sheng Kai is the first disconnectable type FSO designed and constructed by MODEC. The FSO is located on the Lufeng 13-1 field in the typhoon alley offshore China.

The 121,361 dwt tanker was purchased and supplied by JHN. SOFEC disconnectable internal turret mooring system was chosen so that vessel can evacuate if a typhoon were to develop in the area.
