Subsea HP/HT Pipeline Analysis
Subsea HP/HT Pipeline Analysis
(OP)
Dear all
I wonder if any of you have done any such analysis using abaqus or some other softwares? I understand it is extremely difficult to model the subsea condition. Care to share your experience?

RE: Subsea HP/HT Pipeline Analysis
ABAQUS does have a submerged pipe element suitable for analysing bouyant pipes dragging along the sea-bed. I can't remember the element name though. I have no experience in using it.

The element you are referring to i believe is the pipe soil element in Abaqus. Have not come across any literature refering of the use of this element though.
Thanks
