In the current low oil price market, innovative low cost solutions are necessary for development of new fields and life extension of existing fields. For deep water applications, Steel Catenary Risers (SCRs) and Steel Lazy Wave Risers (SLWRs) provide

Fatigue loading on subsea wellheads has been increasing in recent years through the use of larger and heavier BOP stacks and the longer drilling durations needed for deeper wells and to extend production lives. This challenge has prompted the widespr

The growth in oil price and improvement in techniques for recovery of oil is resulting in an increasing need to keep subsea wells that have exceeded that initial design lives in operation. Life extension will require further drilling on the wells, th

With drilling exploration extending to deeper water, the total top tension to lift a drilling riser increases accordingly. Tensioners with higher tension capacity are preferred to minimize the total number of tensioners due to space limitation on a d

Abstract To conduct offshore drilling activities safely there is an increasing requirement to understand the strength and durability of subsea wellheads and conductors. The use of modern drilling rigs, with larger BOP stacks and drill-through trees,

With drilling capability extends to water depths up to 3000m, significantly increased is the risk associated with a failed riser recoil control in the event of an emergency riser disconnect due to loss of vessel station keeping. In deeper waters the

In September 2004 BP retrieved a Gulf of Mexico drilling riser due to excessive loop currents. Whilst waiting for the currents to diminish an impromptu full scale riser Vortex Induced Vibrations (VIV) test was carried out using the drilling riser sta
