A spar is a marine structure, used for floating oil/gas platforms. Named after navigation channel Spar buoys, spar platforms were developed as an extreme deepwater alternative to conventional platforms. [1] The deep draft design of spars makes them less affected by wind, wave, and currents and allows for both dry tree and subsea production.
Unlike floating production storage and offloading units , FLNGs will also allow full scale deep processing, as an onshore LNG plant does [2] but will reduce its footprint to 25%t [citation needed]. The first 3 FLNG's were constructed in 2016: Prelude FLNG , PFLNG1 and PFLNG2 .
The first semi-submersible floating production platform was the Argyll FPF converted from the Transworld 58 drilling semi-submersible in 1975 for the Hamilton Brothers North Sea Argyll oil field. As the oil industry progressed into deeper water and harsh environments, purpose-built production semi-submersible platforms were designed.
The Lun-A (Lunskoye-A) platform, located off the north eastern coast of Sakhalin Island and is a concrete gravity base substructure (CGBS).. An oil platform (also called an oil rig, offshore platform, oil production platform, etc.) is a large structure with facilities to extract and process petroleum and natural gas that lie in rock formations beneath the seabed.
MOPU – mobile offshore production unit (to describe jack-up production rig, or semi-submersible production rig, or floating production, or storage ship) MOT – materials/marine offloading terminal; MOV – motor operated valve; MPA – micropalaeo analysis report; MPD – managed pressure drilling; MPFM – multi-phase flow meter

A tension-leg platform (TLP) or extended tension leg platform (ETLP) is a vertically moored floating structure normally used for the offshore production of oil or gas, and is particularly suited for water depths greater than 300 metres (about 1000 ft) and less than 1500 metres (about 4900 ft).
