Assessment of Ageing Structures: Case Studies
暂无分享,去创建一个
In all phases of the service life of a structure, uncertainties will occur, hence probability based methodologies may be an important and valuable tool in order to verify structural integrity and the corresponding expected safety level. This paper gives a brief description of an approach for how to demonstrate the safety of facilities in the life extension phase by the use of risk based inspection (RBI) plans. This is illustrated with four separate cases used for assessment and life extension of FPSOs operating in harsh environments on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS). The assessments are partly based on the methodology introduced in NORSOK (2009).Copyright © 2011 by ASME
