The high temperature and thermal radiation caused by generator fire accidents on the offshore platform lead to the destruction of equipment and facilities and threaten the structural safety of the offshore platform. Based on the background of a crude oil generator fire accident on an offshore platform, KFX software was used to conduct a numerical simulation of the fire process and explore the spatial-temporal variation characteristics of smoke, temperature and heat radiation within the scope of the fire room. The influence ranges of 12.5 kW/m2, 25 kW/m2 and 35 kW/m2 were obtained according to the thermal radiation criterion. Researchers examined the temperature variation and heat flow at the room’s ceiling and floor near the primary steel support. The results show that: 1) The surface temperatures of partial steel supports exceed 550°C, and the heat flux of partial steel supports exceeds 37.5 kW/m2. 2) In the ignition position, the maximum temperature at the ceiling reaches 2299°C when t = 24 s, and the maximum temperature at the flooring reaches 701°C when t = 79 s. The heat radiation flux at the ceiling and flooring both exceeds 25 kW/m2. The maximum temperature of partial crude oil generators can reach 1299°C. 3) The heat radiation flux of partial generators can reach 105 kW/m2, and the heat radiation flux at the adjacent point of partial generators never exceeds 20 kW/m2. The above research results can provide a reference for checking the response time of flame detectors and the strength of the supporting structure.
