Description
Hyber – Riser Interference Assessment
Application:
Top tensioned risers on TLPs and deepwater platforms exposed to riser interference:
- Risk of interference
- Riser Clearance
- Riser Contact and damage
The technology is based on strip theory and pre-established interaction coefficients from lab tests and CFD computations. Databases for both smooth risers and risers with strakes.
Hyber is based on pre-defined coefficients
Interaction over entire riser length
Capabilities:
- Fully 3D non linear time domain Finite Element simulations
- Arbitrary riser and umbilical configuration
- Floater motion
- Uniform or skewed current profile
- Fatigue and extreme distribution
- To be used on standard PCs
- Low user thershold
- Verified through laboratory tests
