The offshore projects have used a number of structural solutions including pile and cap, jacket and topside, monopile and tri/quad pile structures to suit the water depth, geotechnical and seismic parameters. The Marine team have developed a fast-track assessment criteria driven by experience and lessons learned.
The team's knowledge of vessel data, mooring and process equipment parameters and offshore analysis experience can be readily applied to new offshore projects.
Complications which have been successfully addressed within the Offshore Gasports proiects include designing for seismic Class-F soils, liquefaction, calcareous sands, high sea state and vessel hull fatigue.
