This is a comprehensive and expert guide to the issues surrounding deepwater installations. Practicing engineers in the offshore and reservoir engineering industry will find this timely volume filled with practical advice and expert information on current oil field development from oil exploration to production. Among the topics covered are deepwater foundation issues and the corresponding requirements of a site investigation; numerical analyses demonstrating how commercially available finite element programs can be used to analyse/design practical foundation alternatives; geo-material models and features necessary for their successful application to various foundation problems; and much more.
