Subsea components such as X’trees, wellhead and manifold and template, field equipment, pipelines and flowlines, umbilicals and risers; subsea control and communication and new technology on subsea. This course also provides advanced subsea pipeline engineering with a focus on structural and mechanical design of pipelines. Stress based and limits states design for strength and stability is examined. Other pipeline engineering design considerations are reviewed. Principles of geotechnical engineering and pipeline/soil interaction analysis techniques are examined and special topics are examined. Students will develop general skills on the use of common engineering software tools for report writing and communications. Students will develop more specialized skills on the use of engineering software tools for analysis and design.
