Project Number | 316 |
Date of Summary | June 15, 2001 |
Subject | Reliability Study for Synthetic Moorings |
Performing Activity | EQE International |
Principal Investigator | Andrew Wolford |
Contracting Agency | Minerals Management Service |
Completion | October 1999 |
Description | The purpose of this project is to construct a data set that integrates all relevant data on individual component reliability of polyester moorings. This will achieve an accurate rational for collecting future data with the most information value. It will also compare a polyester mooring design with a standard steel design. Since the future of deepwater Gulf of Mexico will undoubtedly consist of floating production, it is vital that the MMS develop a rational of comparison between polyester verse steel mooring systems. In doing this, the MMS can continue to achieve safe and pollution free production on the OCS. |
Progress | Project is complete. |
