Abstract

This paper is an attempt to understand the problem of High Frequency Resonance Response experienced by many of the present day offshore support vessels (OSVs) and to propose a solution towards the same. A simple roll stabilization arrangement using flooding tanks is being discussed as an optimum solution. The system works on the principle of the reduced vessel stiffness and shall be used to vary the natural frequency of roll depending on the dominant frequency of the operating sea states. The typical case of a 90m MSV is discussed where the system was installed successfully.
