Shell Whale
Tasked by Shell to act as the third party certified verification agent (CVA) for several risers off the new Whale platform
Utilized OrcaFlex to run interference analysis between several riser interference pairs
Hess Baldpate PSS
Ran interference analysis in OrcaFlex between the Penn State bundled riser and associated umbilical
Oxy K2 Pumping Project
Ran analysis using a revised Oceaneering umbilical cross section to confirm initial results from a cross section generated in Umbili-CAD
Worked with the client iterating through multiple potential umbilical routes in order to minimize cost, installation time, and maintenance
Oxy K2 Umbilical Decommissioning
Tasked by Occidental with performing analysis for the decommissioning of the existing out of service K2 umbilical in order to free up a slot for a new umbilical
BP Mad Dog 2 Riser Monitoring
Tasked by BP with evaluating the feasibility of installing sensors to ensure robustness of the riser designs and validate predicted fatigue damages
Utilized Flexcom to select the elements with the most onerous fatigue damages along the risers, calculated average period and amplitude at those locations when subjected to timetrace motions, and plotted them against sensor tolerances
Oxy Horn Mountain West CVA
Tasked by Occidental to act as the CVA for the addition of two flexible risers and an umbilical off the existing Horn Mountain West spar
Utilized Flexcom to run interference analysis between the two flexible risers and umbilical
Utilized Flexcom and Layercom to run global and local fatigue analysis for the two flexible risers
BP Na Kika Herschel Umbilical Replacement
Tasked by BP to perform a design verification for an umbilical to replace the existing Herschel umbilical on the Na Kika floating platform
Utilized Flexcom to perform strength, interference, and fatigue analysis and confirmed that the design was acceptable
