  1. Logistics Support System

    Orphan date February 2009 Logistics support system LSS is a tool created for the purpose of facilitating the communication among humanitarian agencies, non governmental oraganizations, donors, media or countries and enhancing the coordination of humanitarian supply chain. By creating matching tables to collect information from other tracking systems or by having access to already existing data in the systems s database, logistics support systems have the ability to provide decision supporting reports that show which relief supplies were received or delivered, where they have been stored, which relief supplies are requested and how useful they are at a specific moment. Sorting and classifying incoming supplies are also some functions of a logistics support system. Consequently, the function of the logistics support system enhances the proactiveness of a humanitarian organization by improving problem traceability and performance monitoring and providing the advantage to timely change the plan of the supply chain without consequenses. Two modules of logistics support systems have been created a module that operates under Windows systems and a second module that operates under Internet Explorer. Logistics support systems have been used in many natural disasters , including Pakistan earthquake in October 2005 and Bolivian floods in February 2006.

They are designed to operate in conjunction with a static production platform which is connected to the platform by flow lines and or by Umbilical cable . Traditionally, these jacket type structures have been installed and used in shallow to medium water depths of up to 40 60 meters. The conductor supported system use its inherited strength of the well conductors to support both the wells and the topside structure. The conductor supported system is particularly suited to areas with more benign environmental conditions. The well conductors act as both piles and conductors.
