Gimbal Joint Riser: Qualification Program of a Novel Concept

Abstract: As oil and gas exploration is moving to deeper waters, a key challenge is to design risers in harsh environments. Steel catenary risers (SCR) are cost-effective solutions that have been used in offshore developments due to their simplicity and robustness. However, stresses at the touchdown zone (TDZ), in such configurations are very large in ultra-deep waters for FPSOs in harsh environments leading the solution to become unfeasible in some fields. Therefore, steel lazy-wave risers (SLWR), are the market soluti… Show more
