EFFECT OF LOCAL JOINT FLEXIBILITY (LJF) IN STRUCTURAL ASSESSMENT OF AGEING JACKET OFFSHORE PLATFORM

Many fixed steel offshore platforms installed around the globe has exceeded or is approaching the end of design life. In many operating areas, there is an attraction to continue using these ageing facilities dues to continued production or as an adjoining structure to facilitate a new field devel...
