This document summarizes a presentation on legal risks associated with contracts for FPSO conversion projects. It discusses the key components of an FPSO, the various contracts involved in an FPSO conversion including modules design, heavy lift, floating crane operations, and module fabrication. It presents a legal risk matrix and identifies "invisible" legal risks like poor contract advice. It then outlines the sequence of loading out modules from fabrication to installation on the FPSO and stresses the importance of having a project execution plan that identifies the key players and their roles for each stage of the process.
