The enormous cost of handling the challenges of flow assurance in subsea wells, flowlines,
and risers, especially in deepwater applications, has necessitated a proactive approach to …

Double-curved-beam systems (DCBSs) are usually seen in many engineering fields.
Compared to straight double-beam systems, DCBSs are more efficient in noise and vibration …

High voltage submarine cables are increasingly being installed in existing and new offshore
oil and gas fields for power supply and control purposes. These power cables are both large …

Abstract Steel Catenary Risers (SCRs), are increasingly becoming an attractive option for
many deepwater field developments. SCRs are typically used to transport fluids between …

Connection of floating production vessels to subsea pipelines requires careful consideration
of the stresses placed on the steel catenary riser (SCR), subsea spool and pipeline end …

This paper describes an incident that occurred during the baseline inspections of pre-
commissioning activities performed on a 20-in. metallurgically bonded corrosion resistant …

Severe slugging is an unstable multiphase flow pattern occurs in a pipeline riser with low
gas and liquid flowrates. It is highly undesired in practical operation because of the pressure …

Flow of gas in pipelines is subject to thermodynamic conditions which produces two-phase
bulks (ie, slugs) within the axial pipeline flow. These moving slugs apply a moving load on …

The continuing rapid growth in the world's energy demands, has resulted in oil and gas
exploration and production moving towards offshore facilities and the expansion of …

This thesis investigates the risk of offshore oil and gas processing equipment operating in a
harsh environment. It comprises of two major studies which form the core of journal papers …
