I am Naval Architect moving into Marine Operations work and am trying to see if any engineers who post in this forum could give me some references on the following ( rigging,anchor handling ops, towing etc)
1) How to setup ( select components) for anchor handling or any other marine...
Hello,
I am working on setting up a Criticality Matrix for mooring components used in station keeping of offshore platforms. I wonder if any engineers or consultants who post in this forum has prior experience in this regard? if you do, could you please give me some information on the...

Hello,
I planning on attending Subsea Installation Calculations course offered by Trevor Jee Associates. I am a floating structures engineer by profession and would like to move into subsea pipelines group eventually and was hoping this course would give me some real help I need for the...
I worked on setting up operations manual for deepwater floaters and the procedure is kind of straight forward:
Step 1: Establish geometry of all the ballast tanks and find out permeability data for each tank.
Step 2: Establish hydrostatics for the vessel i.e.,Inplace Stabilty curves & Tank...
Hi All,
I am looking for a report (shown below) issued by SINTEF back in 1992 Could anyone let me know how I can get hold of this report? or could you let me know whom I should contact for information on this report.
"Handbook on Design and Operation of Flexible Pipes", S. Berge and A...
Can anyone let me know a few good references that discusses about Structural Steel used for Offshore Applications. I looked up APIRP2A and am not completely satisfied with the writeup in there as its not detailed enough to cover all the steel grades we use in offshore industry.
Thanks!
Hello All,
This might be too naive a question to put before you all, even then, could anyone mind writing down few lines about the following ( both functional & physics point of view & some standards (or) references for design of these items)
a) PADDLE BLINDS
b) SPECTACLE BLINDS...
Well lets look at different factors that play-in when you want to shutdown a deepwater facility:
1) Installation Phase
2) Operating Environment
3) Failure of Equipment ( Normal house-keeping)
4) Unforseen Accident
5) Upgrades to platform
1) Installation Phase : I presume that you are...
Ussuri,
Thanks for your feedback. Do you mind sharing the course material ( handouts) you recieved as part of the training? I have an old course material on "subsea design essentials" from my mentor which I would be more than happy to barter with you.
Eitherways, thanks for your feedback.
Has anyone of you attended Trevor Jee Associates training course in subsea systems design? If so, could you let me know how you grade their training program.
Thanks,

Hello,
Can anyone recommend a website or a link where I could find some good introductory information ( or lecture notes ) on Process Equipment Design.
Thanks,

Well I would suggest the following :
The accelerations at the derrick are driven by motion response of the vessel to the environmental loads.And the motion responses are driven by the mass properties & hydrodynamic properties of the vessel.I am not sure about ships but for derrick design for...
