RE: Advise me
Process facilites can be anything from just a 3 phase separator train with gas to flare to full export spec process systems with full water and gas injection systems: a big (say 50m x 150m) FPSO has a lot of deck space!
FPSO are very flexible; they've been used in thousands of meters of water offshore Brazil to a few meters of water offshore Nigeria; they can cope with as few as 2 -3 wells to as many as 60 or so, and throughputs can vary from a couple of thousand bbl/d to hundreds of thousands bbl/d. Storage can also range from a few thousand barrels to over a million barrels- some of these things are huge!
FPSOs are popular, expecially on marginal or small fields as they are cheap (especially conversions of existing tankers). One obvious disadvantage is they use subsea trees, and another is the lack of drilling/ workover facilities (although there are proposals for FDPSO- FPSOs with drilling capabilites). It is even possible to hire them from people like Oceaneering or Bluewater (do a Google on these companies to find out more about leasing an FPSO).

I doubt whether you can obtain P&IDs via the Internet, since they are normally confidential.
However, when you look at the production process this will not be fundamentally different from oil/gas production processes that or not located on a ship (e.g. on fixed platforms or onshore plants). So if your DRAG technology is used on oil/gas producing plants you can be pretty sure that they can also be used on a FPSO...
