Modeling patterns for performance analyses of offshore production systems

To ease the modeling missions when analyzing the production performance, we proposed a set of modeling patterns. The production systems own shared behaviors, the so-called modeling patterns, like the singleinput- single-output physical structure and the preventive maintenance strategy. We implement the modeling patterns, which capitalize the modeling knowledge, with the AltaRica 3.0 modeling language. We apply the proposed modeling patterns on a practical offshore installation. The results generated by the modeling patterns agree well with the ones in the literature. Our study indicates that it is beneficial to reuse the capitalized knowledge for modeling the production systems.
