Emerging Solutions for Offshore Asset Integrity Challenges
EVENT: SPE Workshop Malaysia
1 Sep 2020
This presentation covers the following:
Riser structural monitoring is a proven method for early detection of anomalies allowing Operators to address ahead of time and reduce remediation costs.
Structural monitoring can also be used to accurately determine remaining life and justify life extension beyond the original service life
Instrumenting the riser with sensors can be costly activity requiring interface data from and access to the host vessel
An alternative lower cost approach is to use Machine Learning technology to develop a real time structural digital twin of the risers using the finite element model to provide training data
