Description | Alaska's often harsh environment has created unique challenges for the Oil and Gas industry both onshore and offshore. To better understand the challenges characteristic of artic environments, their impacts, and possible solutions, MMS contracted with Det Norske Veritas (DNV) to provide a workshop on the fundamentals, technical issues, and remediation of VIV of free spanning pipelines in Cook Inlet, strudel scour in Beaufort sea, and wind-induced vibrations for elevated pipelines on the North Slope. |
Progress | A two-day workshop was held May 25 - 26, 2004 at the MMS Regional Office in Anchorage, AK. Representatives throughout MMS and the State of Alaska participated in the event. A large portion of the material presented during the workshop remains proprietary to DNV. The non-proprietary portion of the workshop is provided below. |
