The FPSO life extension is a critical factor for extending the field life, being a an increasingly appealing option to avoid early decommissioning of fields where a new FPSO is not economic sound. A successful life extension depends on the asset integrity condition, timely decision about the extension and fit-for-purpose implementation.
