Abstract: Subsea hose is an important part of catenary anchor leg mooring (CALM) system. The technical requirements, design conditions and analysis methods of subsea hose with Chinese lantern configuration in the CALM system are introduced. It is confirmed that the key of subsea hose design is the reasonable determination of hose section, float arrangement and buoy offset. In addition, the dynamic response of the subsea hose and the fatigue of key parts are analyzed with an example, which provides a reference for practical engineering design.
