Performed design and analysis of riser and
retention systems using laminated elastomeric bearings for numerous
offshore drilling platforms, including the first Tension Leg
Platform installed in the North Sea (Conoco UK - Hutton Field), the
Shell Auger platform and the Snorre Field development project.
Analyzed high-pressure hose, conveyor belts, mud-seals and drive
belts using finite element analysis.
Management of several off-shore drilling projects
concerning the analysis of the structural attachments of the tendons
to the pontoons and to the ocean floor.
- Off-shore
Oil Platform Mooring Systems
Analyzed and
participated in the design of the flexible connections of the
mooring system of the Conoco Tension Leg Platform installed in the
North Sea. Engineering on various types of marine risers; analyzed
drill bits, down-hole drilling components, pipe line components,
and other types of oil field equipment. Also analyzed key
components of the mooring systems for the Hedrun, Auger, xxxx,
