Offshore Life -transport to offshore-

Talking about the transportation..
many of us did not know at the offshore also have a main transportation service for everyday activities at the offshore..
it has two main transportation while working at offshore
whether using helicopter or via supply vessel
this two type of transportation is very familiar to offshore workers.

Standby Supply Vessel

A Platform supply vessel (often abbreviated as PSV) is a ship specially designed to supply offshore oil platforms. These ships range from 20 to 100 meters in length and accomplish a variety of tasks. The primary function for most of these vessels is transportation of goods and personnel transfer and from offshore oil platforms and other offshore structures.
A primary function of a platform supply vessel is to transport supplies to the oil platform and return other cargoes to onshore. Cargo tanks for drilling mud, pulverized cement, diesel fuel, potable and non-potable water, and chemicals used in the drilling process comprise the bulk of the cargo spaces. Fuel, water, and chemicals are almost always required by oil platforms. Certain other chemicals must be returned to onshore for proper recycling or disposal, however, crude oil product from the rig is usually not a supply vessel cargo. 

Helicopter

A helicopter (informally called "chopper" is a type of rotorcraft in which lift and thrust are supplied by engine-driven rotors. same as supply vessel, the primary function of a platform transport supplies and personnel transfer from onshore to offshore and to other platform.

FPSO
or A floating production, storage and offloading unit is a floating vessel used by the offshore oil and gas industry for the processing of hydrocarbons and for storage of oil. An FPSO vessel is designed to receive hydrocarbons produced from nearby platforms or subsea template, process them, and store oil until it can be offloaded onto a tanker or, less frequently, transported through a pipeline. FPSOs are preferred in frontier offshore regions as they are easy to install, and do not require a local pipeline infrastructure to export oil. FPSOs can be a conversion of an oil tanker or can be a vessel built specially for the application. A vessel used only to store oil (without processing it) is referred to as a floating storage and offloading vessel (FSO)
