Fatigue of welded fixed offshore platforms is a primary design and operational concern. Environmental, fatigue data, and method uncertainties, as well as inspection and repair activities, are major parameters that influence the welded joint reliabili

Abstract The extensive industry experience with design, fabrication, installation, and operation of TLPs in water depths up to 4,000 ft has demonstrated the flexibility, reliability, and robustness of the TLP concept. However, the TLP concept is fall

ABSTRACT Ursa is the largest TLP in the Gulf of Mexico having 98.000 tons displacement and is the deepest TLP in the world located in 3,800 feet-of-water, MC Block 809. The URSA tendon and foundation design, fabrication and installation were built on

Motion response calculation procedures are described for a vertical, singly standing pile with no top restraint. Discussion is directed to: (1) Sea state energy distribution versus frequency; (2) hydrodynamic force formulation; and (3) synchronisatio

The effect of increasing water depth on the performance of deep water tendons of tension leg platforms (TLP) is examined. Equations to determine limts on water depths for tendon systems based on strength and hydrostatic collapse requirements are pres

Laboratory fatigue tests were performed on girth butt weld specimens taken from both vertical piles and batter piles salvaged from the terminal. Specimens were selected to be representative of welds found to be acceptable by irt‐situ radiographic i

An analytical model of a vertical, singly standing pile is constructed to study the mechanism by which fatigue damage is produced in girth butt welds near the mudline. Top restraints are known to have been present on the terminal piles for a portion

During construction of an oil tanker loading terminal in the northern Arabian Gulf, two vertical, singly standing piles failed due to fatigue damage in girth butt welds near the mudline. The failures were reported ten days after an unusually strong s

Reducing conservatism in jacket designs based solely on environmental loads can make other loading mechanisms which were not of concern in the past a dominant design parameter. One of these mechanisms is associated with the dynamic loads induced duri
