摘要

A critical component in the wet tree development of deeprnwater fields is the umbilical riser. Failure of the umbilical canrnresult in partial or total loss of production, with resultingrnsevere economic consequences. In many recent deep waterrnprojects, steel tubes for control and injection lines havernbecome the preferred solution over traditional thermoplasticrnhose based designs. The fatigue design of these steel tubernumbilicals (STUs) with accurate modeling of the steel tuberninteraction friction stresses is critical for any developmentrnusing STUs.rnSimplified conservative approaches where the nonlinearitiesrnof the tube friction are ignored have frequently beenrnused for STU fatigue design. This paper presents therntheoretical basis for an enhanced non-linear time domainrnfatigue model for deepwater STUs. In developing this model,rnthe authors have proposed an analytical fatigue designrnapproach that accounts for the non-linearity of tube frictionrnusing slip theory combined with time-domain global and localrnanalytical methods.rnA worked example is presented, where an ExxonMobilrnWest of Africa field development STU has been analyzedrnusing both the enhanced nonlinear time domain fatigue modelrnand an alternative simplified model. The enhanced non-linearrntime domain fatigue model, has been used to evaluate therninfluence on fatigue life of several parameters, includingrnfriction, water depth and STU cross-section geometry, some ofrnwhich become increasingly important in deeper water.rnThe merits of the enhanced nonlinear fatigue model overrnthe simplified model are critically evaluated, as are the lessonsrnlearned on the importance of critical design parameters andrnanalysis assumptions affecting STU fatigue life. Conclusionsrnare also presented on the benefit of further enhancement of thernanalytical approaches commonly used to design forrnumbilical fatigue.
