This document is CYBERNETIX's Specification for future HR-XCT tool suitable for midwater subsea operations with the ultimate goal of producing an operational subsea tool
This report provides guidelines for riser and splash zone design, provides a detailed overview of existing riser repair techniques and products, and provides guidelines identifying the capabilities and limitations of riser reinstatement systems. The…
The overall objective of this work was to review current practices and to determine the need for, or type of J-tube riser coatings and plugs. In addition, tension forces and installation procedures, as they relate to corrosion aspects, were…
The state-of-the-art survey showed that a number of risers have been installed, using the J-tube method, in a variety of water depths and in a range of diameters. Many different coating types have been used, but neoprene appears to be the most…
The project assessed Guided Wave Technology (GWT). Five off pipes were to be set up such that one was a clean control with no defects, and the remaining four marked up with artificial corrosion defects via Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM), which…
Carbon steel and low alloy steel are the common, cost effective materials of choice for design of production risers in deep water. They are, however, often challenged by high stress and fatigue loadings. When production fluids are corrosive and or…
The major challenges for deepwater riser systems are the higher external pressures, increased weights and tensions, larger dynamic loads and responses, potential for fatigue of the girth welds, severe flow assurance requirements, and the need to…
This report provides guidelines for riser and splash zone design, provides a detailed overview of existing riser repair techniques and products, and provides guidelines identifying the capabilities and limitations of riser reinstatement systems. The…
The objective of this effort was to develop a comprehensive design guide for the engineering and system design of pipeline risers intended for use at the design engineer level. This manual was prepared for the engineering and design for the following…
