Tensa Equipment is the company that CWE has commissioned to provide the system to protect the buoys during extreme conditions.

What is their expertise?

"TENSA provides complete engineered solutions for offshore drilling, construction and field operations. We understand this environment. Our product development process involves detailed engineering and functional testing to ensure the products work in an environment where support is limited.We focus on robust simplicity so that operation is intuitive and minimal training is needed.

We then provide technical support for the application to ensure that the equipment does what is intended.

TENSA is based in Perth, Western Australia but offers its products world wide. We have partnerships that allow us to provide local service in most oilfield territories worldwide.

Our product range includes:.

DYNAMIC LOAD REDUCERS

DYNAMIC MOTION SYSTEM

HEAVE COMPENSATION

CLAMPS AND LIFTING EQUIPMENT

CONDUCTOR TENSIONERS

CONDUCTOR DECKS

SLAM DECK

MOTION COMPENSATED GANGWAYS"

"How does the CETO unit survive storms?
A unique and novel feature of CETO, and a key element of the CETO intellectual property, is the ability of the system to dampen high loads within the pump and for the Buoyant Actuator to self-regulate the amount of energy absorbed from an incident wave, thereby limiting the total forces transferred to the pump and associated structural elements. This novel feature of CETO, allows the units to continue to operate unhindered through storm events without human intervention.

Where the wave energy is greater than the normal operating conditions, the unit continues to operate but its maximum output is limited to the rated capacity, set by the load limiting (energy relief) system.

CETO is also offered protection from storms because it lies beneath the ocean surface. The surface of the ocean is the most unpredictable place to be during a storm event."

"CETO is also offered protection from storms because it lies beneath the ocean surface."

Too simplistic. Only applies in nice storms. In not nice storms the waves can be so big that the CETOs will be out of the water in an unprotected, vulnerable situation that they are not designed for. Survivability will be much decreased.
