| Description |
| Experience
of deepwater Steel Catenary Riser (SCR) applications in the Gulf of
Mexico (GOM) has shown that fatigue is usually one of the most
challenging feasibility issues for SCR design. Wave loading, VIV,
and other environmental and design challenges have also
contributed to the fatigue that these riser system are subject to.
The objective of this study was to focus on industry's
understanding and incorporation of regulatory requirements
regarding deepwater riser design and installation and find practical
methods to mitigate gaps. |
