Why Choose this Training Course?

This Fixed Offshore Structures training course will review in detail the analysis and design of fixed offshore structures platforms. Structural analysis is required in a variety of engineering problems that arise over the life of assets, such as design, fabrication, transportation, lifting, loadout, installation, in-place operations, modifications, conversions, upgrades, life extension, and decommissioning. 

This PetroKnowledge Fixed Offshore Structures training course will highlight:

  • Load classifications
  • Load calculations
  • Bathymetric survey and geotechnical investigation
  • Structural analysis concepts and philosophies
  • Fabrication and construction of offshore structures
  • Lessons learnt from failure of offshore structures
