Description

Subsea, umbilicals, risers, and flowlines (SURF) refer to the complex network of underwater infrastructure that connects offshore production facilities to the shore or other infrastructure. These systems are used in the offshore oil and gas industry to transport oil, gas, and other fluids from offshore wells to onshore processing plants or other subsea infrastructure.

SURF systems are designed to withstand the harsh environmental conditions of the offshore environment, including high pressures, extreme temperatures, and corrosive seawater. The design and installation of SURF systems require specialized knowledge and expertise in areas such as structural engineering, mechanical engineering, and subsea pipeline engineering. SURF systems are critical to the success of offshore oil and gas production, as they enable the safe and efficient transportation of oil and gas from the seabed to onshore processing facilities.

This course covers Subsea Flexible Pipe, Types of Flexible Pipe, Comparison of Flexible Pipe Types, Flexible Pipe Application, Advantages of Flexible Pipe, Flexible Pipe Limits, Flexible Pipe Configurations, Flexible Pipe Material Selection, Flexible Pipe Layer Function, Ending Fitting Design critical Issues, Design Process , Functional Requirements, Design Codes & Criteria, Structural Cross-Section Design & Analysis, Structural Cross-Section Design Models Advantages & Disadvantage, Structural Layers Engineering Design Calculations & Verification, Global Design Analysis Static & Dynamic Analysis, Buoyancy Modelling & Sensitivity Analysis, Global Fatigue Analysis, Dynamic Fatigue Testing, Cross Section Fatigue Analysis, Service Life Assessment and more.
