Abstract

A modified tension leg platform (300, referred to as "Soft TLP") for the exploration of, drilling of, and production from offshore subterranean reservoirs. The buoyant section has been positioned below 30.5 meters (100 feet) of water depth, to provide this Soft TLP (300) with a reduced surface area in the first 30.5 meters (100 feet) of water depth such that the heave resonance of the platform is in the range of about 6 to about 10 seconds thereby reducing the effect of wave forces on the structure.
