Offshore Structures: Design, Construction and Maintenance
Year: 2020 Language: English Author: Mohamed A. El-Reedy Genre: Offshore Publisher: Matthew Deans Edition: 2 ISBN: 978-0-12-816191-3 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 682 Description: The first addition of this book was successful in helping many engineers worldwide, based on their positive feedback, which encouraged me to enrich this edition with the addition of new topics. For this new edition I have added up-to-date techniques for most topics and also added a new chapter about the design and installation of subsea pipelines, as this is a very important topic for anyone working on offshore projects. In addition, as decommissioning projects are increasing rapidly due to the existing mature structures, so I try to focus on this in this edition. When a structural engineer start works in the design, construction, or maintenance of offshore structures, it will be a steep learning experience as most engineering faculties, especially for structural or civil engineering, focus on the design of residential, administration, hospital, and other domestic concrete or steel structure buildings. In contrast, some courses in the faculty are concerned with the design of harbors. The design of offshore structure platforms combines the steel structure design methods with the loads that are applied to the harbor, such as waves, currents, and other parameters. The design of the platforms is dependent on technical practice which relies on the experience of the engineering company itself. On the other hand, the construction of steel structures is more familiar to the structure engineer as the construction of new steel buildings is widely seen throughout society, but the construction and installation of offshore structure platforms is very rarely seen, unless the individual has a direct role in the project as the installation will be in the sea or ocean. There are few offshore structures worldwide when compared with the steel structures for normal buildings on land. Therefore the major design guide and roles for offshore structures are dependent on research and development which are growing rapidly to keep pace with the development of related businesses throughout the world. Therefore all the major oil and gas exploration and production companies are supporting and sponsoring more researches to enhance the design and reliability of offshore structures to grow the revenue from these petroleum projects and their assets.
