Abstract
This paper presents the results of simulation analysis executed by the TPN – Tanque de Provas Numérico (Numerical Offshore Tank), about the POLVO FPSO (Floating, Production, Storage Offloading) offloading operation, located at Campos basin in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Moreover, it is shown the viability to use numerical codes, as TPN simulator, as auxiliary tools instead of carry out expensive and time spending procedures like reduced model tests.
