HYCOM data for gridded wind and pressure fields

I am having trouble converting HYCOM data into a FM-readable format (gridded wind fields).
  • gridded p-field: "airprs" in file "cfsv2-sec_2018_01hr_sfcprs.nc" has a scale_factor = 0.00390625f and offset = -29.236965f and add 100,000 to convert to Pa.
Has anyone written a code that converts these fields into an .amu, .amp, .amv format that Delft3D-FM can read?
