Hello All,

I am reading a Topside Weight Review and I need to know the weight for each piece of equipment. But only base dry weight / base operational weight ratios for 10000t topsides are reported. DO you know what is that? how can I use them to get what I need?

Regards,
Petroleo

The operational weight includes the weight of fluids during operation in it, the only way to get the dry weight is find the original breakdown so that you can subtract the weighjt of fluids.
 
Thanks a lot monaco8774. I see that operational weight would be more representative if I need to calculate spare weight in a facility, isn't it?

Thanks in advance,
Petroleo
