摘要

The “L-riser” is a new steel production and export riserrnconcept for floating production vessels that avoids the highrncost, integrity problems and size limits of flexibles.rnIt consists of two initially straight, constant wall thickness,rnsteel pipe sections joined to form an “L”; the steeply inclinedrnupper section is terminated at the vessel, the lower section isrntangent to the seabed at a point below the upper termination.rnAn elastic anchor line is attached at the 90 degree corner andrnto an anchor on the seabed. The corner is a double planarrnstress joint of novel design incorporating a long radius bendrn(see Figure 1 and 2).rnThe ”L-riser” configuration allows for large vessel motionsrnin typical harsh environments. Motion components parallelrnwith the upper riser section will be transferred almostrnundamped to the corner, and set up transverse oscillations thatrnare damped out in the lower section. The 90 degree cornerrngives the upper steel pipe section dynamic flexibility. Thernanchor line maintains near constant tension in the lowerrnsection, minimising fatigue at the touchdown point. Inrnaddition, the flexibility of the lower pipe section allows largernstatic platform offsets.rnThis paper present the feasibility study of the ”L-riser”rndesigned as a 28” ID export riser (see table 2 for pipernproperties) in 850m and 1750m water depth, for semirnsubmersible production unit in the Norwegian ContinentalrnShelf (NCS) area. Installation, component design, static andrndynamic analysis and fatigue life estimates are covered.rnEstimated fatigue life of all parts of the system exceeds 250rnyears. Material was X65, weld class D. Installation mayrnrequire only one vessel. The main analysis tool is VisualrnOrcaflex, by Orcina Limited, UK, Ref.[4]. The analysis resultsrnindicate that the design is not close to any limits, and that thern“L-riser” is a feasible, robust and highly competitive riserrnsystem over a wide range of applications.rnEstimated cost for one installed 28”ID riser at 850m waterrndepth is 300MNOK. Cost for 1750m water depth isrn450MNOK.rnMajor deepwater offshore development areas like NCS, asrnWest Shetland, Canada, GOM and Brazil experiencernchallenging environmental conditions as discussed in thisrnpaper. Other areas like West Africa have other riser challengesrnlike temperature and insulation.
