BP ETAP Process Drilling and Riser Jacket
Working in a structural design team as senior structural engineer. I was responsible for the jacket template design and PDR jacket configuration with the final jacket weight coming in at 4500T.
I performed the jacket fatigue analysis and boat impact. For fatigue this required selection of the suitable environmental design loads, building the hydrodynamic model for wave loading, interfacing with the topsides model and the foundation model and defining joint classification by load and geometry. Upon completion of the report I was assigned to jacket secondary steel design.
