Structural Engineering and Asset Integrity

Scroll down for more

Genesis is an industry leader in providing structural engineering services for concept studies, pre-FEED, FEED and EPCI of offshore fixed and floating platforms. We also provide support for asset integrity of offshore platforms.

 

Our fixed and floating platforms structural design and analysis service includes:

  • Scantling design for hull structures including Floating Production Storage and Offloading units (FPSOs), spars, semi-submersibles, and Tension Leg Platforms (TLPs)
  • Conceptual design to detail engineering of offshore fixed platforms including jackets, jack-ups, pile foundations and tower platforms 
  • Topsides design for offshore shallow and deep-water platforms including FPSOs, semi-submersibles, spars, and TLPs, as well as gravity based structures and fixed platforms
  • Global/local strength and buckling analysis
  • Time domain and spectral fatigue analysis
  • Lifting, load-out and transportation analysis
  • Topsides floatover design
  • Fabrication, transportation and installation support
  • Evaluation of damaged and corroded structures
  • Brownfield engineering support and Engineering Criticality Assessments (ECA)
  • Structural integrity assessment of offshore platforms for pre-service and in-service conditions
  • Offshore modules and bridges 
  • Weight estimating, management and control
  • Decommissioning studies – extent and methods of platform removal.

 

Advanced structural analysis:

  • Seismic analysis – Extreme Level Earthquake (ELE) and non-linear dynamic Abnormal Level Earthquake (ALE) 
  • Non-linear pushover analysis
  • Advanced non-linear analysis for collision, dropped object and wave slamming
  • Structural fire analysis 
  • Dynamic analysis for Ductility Level Blast (DLB) and Collapse Level Blast (CLB). 

 

Asset integrity:

  • Visual surveys and inspections
  • Structural information monitoring (displacements, accelerations)
  • Life extension evaluations
  • Inspection plan elaboration.
