Abstract

Real-life experimental models take a lot of time and monetary resources to construct and run. These set-ups are expensive and inflexible, requiring a new model to be built for differing conditions. The oil and gas industry requires fast and accurate testing of certain models such as production platform, e.g. SPAR Platforms.
This research attempts to construct a simulation model that replicates the wave reactions of deep-water floating SPAR Platforms. This study also aims to build a clear correlation between varying wave amplitude, water depth and wave frequency to the wave impact pressure of deep-water SPARs.
