| Description |
The Minerals
Management Service is one of six participants of this Joint Industry Project (JIP) to
characterize the residual strength of dented and corroded pipelines applicable to offshore
operations. Experimentally validated tools such as finite-element approach and a set of
derived equations for the analysis of the residual strength of dented and corroded
pipelines will be developed. Information of this type is needed for better safety and
protection of the environment to prevent offshore oil and gas leaks from pipelines. |
