The study about the jacket platforms in the past has revealed that the most of the collapse failures occur due to the lack of strength of the pile foundation. However, when the jacket platforms which have been collapsed due to extreme condition were looked into, it was found that most of them had their foundations intact. These contrasting facts can be explained with the help of the phenomenon ...

In this study, mass, stiffness and damping matrices of the Nosrat jacket; located in Persian Gulf; equipped with Semi Active Tuned Mass Damper (SATMD) system have been derived after modeling the structure in SACS software. Owing to huge number of the degrees of freedom in the model, computation of on-line control of SATMD was time consuming. For this purpose, the size of the model was reduced i...

Effect of earthquake directional uncertainty on the seismic response jacket-type offshore platform

In this paper, an offshore platform subjected to dynamic loading for different damage cases was modelled via fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analysis. Different models were considered in the case where one leg broken, and Young’s modulus of damaged member reduced with four severity ratios. addition five structures, undamaged structure according two spacing conditions. Thus, compared among the...

It is generally accepted that performance-based design has to be reliability-based. Seismic performance evaluation is based on nonlinear dynamics and reliability theory taking into account uncertainties during analysis. Considering the economic importance of jacket type offshore platforms, the present research aims to assess the seismic performance of offshore steel platforms. In this study, th...

Selain terjadi di kota-kota besar, subsidence juga bisa sekitar daerah eksploitasi minyak dan gas bumi baik onshore maupun offshore. Indikasi penurunan tanah dapat dilihat dari terjadinya anjungan lower deck yang semakin tenggelam secara fisik. Terjadinya menyebabkan kegagalan struktur. Apabila kegagalan, struktur mengalami berbagai kemungkinan konsekuensi menimbulkan bahaya hingga kerugian. Me...

The sensitivity of the seismic response parameters to the uncertain modeling variables of pile-founded fixed steel jacket platforms are investigated using the Tornado diagram and the first-order second-moment techniques. The effects of both aleatory and epistemic uncertainty on seismic response parameters have been investigated for an existing offshore platform. The sources of uncertainty consi...
