Therefore, the cross-sectional layout design of the umbilical is a typical multi-objective optimization problem. A mathematical model of the cross-sectional layout considering geometric and mechanical properties is proposed, and the genetic algorithm is introduced to copy with the optimization model in this paper. A steepest descent operator is embedded into the basic genetic algorithm, while the appropriate fitness function and the selection operator are advanced. The optimization strategy of the cross-sectional layout based on the hybrid genetic algorithm is proposed with the fast convergence and the great probability for global optimization. Finally, the cross-section of an umbilical case is performed to obtain the optimal the cross-sectional layout. The geometric and mechanical performance of results are compared with the initial design, which verify the feasibility of the proposed algorithm.","PeriodicalId":240325,"journal":{"name":"Volume 4: Pipelines, Risers, and Subsea Systems","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133635372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The traditional time domain approach may take weeks of time in global simulation, local modelling and post-processing of riser responses to get fatigue results. Baker Hughes developed a fast hybrid approach, which is based on a frequency domain technique. The new approach was first implemented at the end fitting region and then to all other regions of the riser. Studies showed that the hybrid approach achieved convenient and conservative results in a significant shorter period of time.\u0000 To improve the accuracy and reduce conservatism of the method, Baker Hughes has further optimized the analysis procedure to seek better results approaching true solutions. Several methods were proposed and studied. The duration of representative cases and noncritical cases have been extended. The steps to predict stress spectrum based on transfer functions have also been updated. From previous studies, only one transfer function was built for fatigue load cases with similar response spectra. This assumption linearizes the system response and produces certain level of discrepancy against true time domain solution. In this study, multiple ways of spectrum prediction are evaluated and compared.\u0000 The paper summarizes several techniques to further optimize the hybrid frequency domain approach. The updated fatigue results are found to be more accurate. The optimized approach therefore gives more flexibility to engineers to approach the true solutions, which were originally acquired from full 3-hr time domain simulations. The approach requires less analysis time and reduces iterations in pipe structure and riser configuration design, which leads to faster project execution and potential cost reduction.","PeriodicalId":240325,"journal":{"name":"Volume 4: Pipelines, Risers, and Subsea Systems","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123067026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Machining the joint ends is one way to achieve this. However, this adds cost, time, risk of potential crack starters, and loss of wall thickness which is detrimental for fatigue, strength, and engineering criticality assessment (ECA) in particular. Pipe joint sorting (certain joints in sequence) and end matching (rotating the pipe joints for best fit) are other ways. However, this adds time, costly logistics, risk of errors, and does not guarantee the minimum possible SCF is achieved. In a typical project, more pipe joints are procured than required in order to mitigate contingencies. For pipelines, this overage is typically a percentage of the required number of joints or pipeline length. For risers, typically double the required number of joints is procured where half of the joints is sent offshore for installation and the remaining half is kept onshore for a spare riser. Then, it becomes very important to send for installation the best pipe joints that produce the best (lowest) SCFs out of the entire batch of pipe joints. This requires calculating the SCF for every potential match of any random joints to be welded together, and then choosing the best joints. Performing such calculations by spreadsheet is not feasible considering the tremendous number of required iterations and calculations. A pipe joint management software development is presented herein which accomplishes this task and examples provided to illustrate the benefits.\u0000 Note: Selecting pipe joints with the best end measurements, whether ID, OD, OOR, or thickness does not guarantee that the minimum possible SCFs will be achieved since the SCF is a function of all those measurements.","PeriodicalId":240325,"journal":{"name":"Volume 4: Pipelines, Risers, and Subsea Systems","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125296826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper investigates deepwater SCR system design for the Lingshui 17-2 (termed LS17-2) project.\u0000 This paper first introduces a SCR system for the LS17-2 project. The field for this project is located in the northern South China Sea, with water depth of 1220m to 1560m. LS17-2 consists of a subsea production system, a deep-draft semi-submersible (SEMI), and an export riser/pipeline. The platform was designed to have a large storage capacity with a variable draft during its operation.\u0000 Based on deepwater SCR engineering experience, the key SCR design challenges are summarized from the engineering executive perspective. The challenges to the SCR system design for the LS17-2 project include harsh environment condition in South China Sea and the impact on fatigue design for the requirement of 30-years’ service life. They call for design optimization and innovative ideas. The engineering design and analysis are discussed together solutions.\u0000 To demonstrate the deepwater SCR system design for LS17-2 project, examples are provided to illustrate the challenges and solutions.

Steel lazy wave risers have an advantage over steel catenary risers as they offer flexibility of use with a floater having severe motion such as FPSO. They also impart lower loads at the interface with the floater compared to a traditional steel catenary riser, and hence can be used in deeper waters. Therefore, design of steel lazy wave risers has gained importance over the years as exploration of oil happens in ever deeper waters.\u0000 In this paper, artificial neural networks and genetic algorithm are used to automatically generate a steel lazy wave riser design. A dataset of optimized designs of steel lazy wave risers for various inputs such as water depth, pipe OD, wall thickness etc. are generated using genetic algorithm. This dataset is used to train a neural network to automatically output a steel lazy wave riser design. The SLWR configuration that is automatically generated can be used as a starting point for conceptual and pre-FEED studies and help engineers come up with an initial SLWR design capturing the basic requirements without going through rigorous analyses. It has potential for cost savings and meeting schedule demands of fast paced projects as it will speed up the steel lazy wave risers’ design.","PeriodicalId":240325,"journal":{"name":"Volume 4: Pipelines, Risers, and Subsea Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129136649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The selected spool layout for connecting the pipelines to the subsea structures, including the number of bends and leg lengths, must offer the flexibility to accommodate the pipeline thermal expansion, the pipe-lay target box and misalignments associated with the post-lay survey metrology and spool fabrication. The analysis results are considerably affected by many uncertainties involved. Consequently, a very large amount of calculations is required to assess the full combination of uncertainties and to capture the worst-case scenario.\u0000 Rather than applying the deterministic solution, this paper uses machine learning prediction to significantly improve the efficiency of the design process. In addition, thanks to the fast predictive model using machine learning algorithms, the uncertainty quantification and propagation analysis using probabilistic statistical method becomes feasible in terms of CPU time and can be incorporated into the design process to evaluate the reliability of the outputs. The latter allows us to perform a systematic probabilistic design by considering a certain level of acceptance on the probability of failure, for example as per DNVGL design code.\u0000 The machine learning predictive modelling and the reliability analysis based upon the probability distribution of the uncertainties are introduced and explained in this paper.
