COMPLIANT TOWER PLATFORMS: A GENERAL GUIDANCE FOR ANALYSIS, CONSTRUCTION, AND INSTALLATION
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
Offshore structures are complicated structures requiring the consideration of different aspects both for design and construction procedures. The compliant structures are one of the offshore structures used in oil and gas industry. This type of structures requires special considerations during their design procedure. However, construction of such structures has share similarities with conventional steel jacket structures. The aim of this paper is to present a general guidance about the design and construction of compliant towers. Moreover, design and analysis methods of the structure along with the required data for design of piles with respect to code provisions are provided. In addition to that, the fabrication, assembly and erection, loadout, transportation, launching methods are also discussed. Furthermore, corrosion protection methods are also submitted in this paper.
