RiserTec Launch Website
Following months of research, development and testing, RiserTec proudly announce the launch of this, our new, enhanced website. The website has been designed to enhance the end users experience, educate and inform visitors on RiserTec services and Technology.
Detailed Structural Analysis
RiserTec's detailed analysis capability relies on a thorough understanding of the applications of CAE to solve design and analysis problems. Familiarity of use of the software and the development of a clear understanding of the design issues leads to solutions which allow measured project decisions.
We believe we are at the fore-front of CAE analysis of flexible pipe systems and also integrating component analysis into global design; we work closely with ABAQUS in the development of our FE analysis capability and are a NAFEMS member.
Where required detailed fracture assessment to PD8010 can be carried out using RT_Fracture; although alternative verification by the use of the British Energy R6 code has also been found to be a very quick and efficient way of implementing a detailed fracture assessment.
RiserTec's detailed engineering projects have provided:
- Potential to extend or confirm the use of existing equipment and facilities by detailed analysis.
- Potential to remove design conservatism by component level engineering.
- Fully exploit the material properties and load paths within the components.
- Ability to benchmark predicted model behaviour against real-life test results prior to field use encourages confidence in the prediction of the reliability of components analysed.
Completed Projects Demonstrating specific skills in this area:
- Umbilical Detailed Fracture Assessment
- Maersk Curlew Detailed Riser Clamping Analysis
- Tampen Hot Tap Tie-In FEED and Verification
- Flexible Assessment for Loss of Bend Stiffener and Point Loading
