Hoop stress in Jacket leg from rig mooring
Hoop stress in Jacket leg from rig mooring
I can see some shear, some bending stress and a resultant longitudinal stress, but a classic hoop stress is the result of internal pressure and I don't see anything to casuse that.

see this, half way down you find a circular section. For pipe section subtract the hole.

Hoop stress for a thin circular section due to internal pressure is,
σh= P*D/2/t
P pressure
D outside diameter
t wall thickness
