HECSALV

HECSALV is salvage and emergency response software. Starting from the last known departure condition, users collect and process available data, define the extreme bounds of the problem and evaluate multiple remedial scenarios; the whole analysis updates automatically from initial assumptions through to later-stage pump allocations to produce a refined salvage plan. It applies to floating structures of any type, size or operation, from the largest FLNGs to the smallest fishing vessels.
