The course provides a broad overview of design, analysis and construction of offshore structures, one of the most demanding set of tasks faced by the engineering profession. Over and above the usual conditions and situations met by land-based structures, offshore structures have the added complication of being placed in an ocean environment where hydrodynamic interaction effects, water wave theories and structure-fluid interaction in waves become major considerations in their design.

Objective

Develop the necessary knowledge and skills to equip professionals with a successful career through the development of critical, analytical, problem-based learning
Apply and gain an in-depth knowledge on the different types offshore structures and designs
Discuss offshore structures in particularly their construction, design and maintenance issues
Gain a good understanding of codes, regulations and standards
Get familiar to different types of offshore structure and their designs
Get an understanding of calculating design strength, durability and design life cycle
Understand the various factors involved in decision making of type of offshore platform to be used according to the requirements
Understand the stability criteria for all the massive structure floating offshore
Develop an understanding of wave theories and spectral analysis

Methodology

A highly interactive combination of lectures and discussion sessions will be managed to maximize the amount and quality of information and knowledge transfer. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions, and motivate everybody find the right answers. You will also be encouraged to raise your own questions and to share in the development of the right answers using your own analysis and experiences. Tests of multiple-choice type will be made available on daily basis to examine the effectiveness of delivering the course. Very useful Course Materials will be given.
