Innovative Tools for Commissioning of Brazilian Pre-Salt FPSOs: Enhancing Efficiency, Safety and Quality Management

Abstract The implementation of CERTIFICARE, VERTSAFE, and MPDS has significantly improved Pre-Salt FPSO commissioning. These technologies have reduced project timelines and costs while enhancing quality and information management. CERTIFICARE's digital approach optimized commissioning processes, improving tracking, documentation, and reducing quality assurance costs. VERTSAFE ensured comprehensive industrial plant safety by verifying safety layers such as PSD, FGS, and ESD through efficient testing. Virtual testing with Multi-Purpose Dynamic Simulation (MPDS) facilitates early identification of issues, enhances team training, and enables accurate risk evaluation. Overall, these tools have boosted operational efficiency, mitigated risks, and enhanced project management, offering substantial benefits for Pre-Salt FPSOs in cost-effectiveness and safety.
