Offshore Structures (2nd Ed.) Design, Construction and Maintenance
Auteur : El-Reedy Mohamed A.
Offshore Structures: Design, Construction and Maintenance, Second Edition covers all types of offshore structures and platforms employed worldwide. As the ultimate reference for selecting, operating and maintaining offshore structures, this book provides a roadmap for designing structures which will stand up even in the harshest environments. Subsea pipeline design and installation is also covered in this edition, as is the selection of the proper type of offshore structure, the design procedure for the fixed offshore structure, nonlinear analysis (Push over) as a new technique to design and assess the existing structure, and more.
With this book in hand, engineers will have the most up-to-date methods for performing a structural lifecycle analysis, implementing maintenance plans for topsides and jackets and using non-destructive testing.
Dr. El-Reedy has consulted with and trained executives at many organizations, including the Arabian American Oil Company (ARAMCO), bp, Apachi, Shell, Abu Dhabi Marine Operating Company (ADMA), the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company and King Saudi’s Interior ministry, Qatar Telecom, the Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation , Saudi Arabia basic Industries Corporation (SABIC) , the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation, and Qatar petrochemical Company (QAPCO), PETRONAS Malaysia, PTT Thailand. He has taught technical courses about offshore structure integrity, repair and maintenance for reinforced concrete structure, steel and offshore structures and the advanced technique in structural engineering and materials worldwide, especially in the Middle East.
Dr. El-Reedy has written numerous publications and presented many papers at local and international conferences sponsored by the American Society of Civil Engineers, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, the American Concrete Institute, and the American Petroleum Institute. He is in the technical committee for OMAE conference for ten years. He has p
