Design Cycle

The Offshore Energy design cycle closely considers all aspects of the requirements at each and every step of your project:

  • Intended purpose and performance
  • Cost and schedule constraints
  • Design life
  • Operating environment
  • Input loads
  • Vessel interface
  • Material selection
  • Package deployments
    • Dynamic amplification factor (DAF)
    • Splash zone transparency
    • On-bottom weight limitation
    • On-bottom stability
    • Operating depth
    • Remote intervention requirements
    • Recovery/de-ommissioning
  • Critical, high stress or high fatigue components
  • Failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA/FMECA)
  • Control system design
  • Electro and electro-mechanical/hydraulic system design
  • Power interface and requirements
  • IP rating
  • Foundations/sea fastenings
  • Access, fire and lightning considerations
  • Paint systems and/or cathodic protection
  • In-service inspection plans
