The challenges for the offshore oil and gas industry moving into deep water
fields is to design, build, install and operate oil and gas production
systems profitably, with at least the same safety and reliability as in
shallow water.
An important change when working in water depth of 2000 m and
beyond is to extend and further develop the technology for floater, riser
and mooring systems in terms of architecture, functional loads and exposure
to environmental actions. |
