Foundation stiffness identification for offshore platforms
Applied Ocean Research, 1984Abstract A system identification method for optimally estimating major uncertain parameters affecting the behavior of offshore structures, such as the foundation stiffness, using ambient or forced response measurements is presented. The main features of the system identification algorithm are: 1. 1.

The Foundations of an Offshore Supplies Policy
1981In 1964 the first serious commercial exploration for hydrocarbons in the North Sea began, followed closely by a series of substantial gas discoveries in 1965 and 1966. With hindsight, one might choose to regard these discoveries as the beginning of an era in which hydrocarbon fuels from the UK continental shelf dramatically altered Britain’s status in ...

Drilling Technologies for Offshore Foundation Engineering
Volume 6: Polar and Arctic Sciences and Technology; Offshore Geotechnics; Petroleum Technology Symposium, 2013Offshore piles are normally installed by driving using over-water or underwater hammers. However, there are many situations where pile reaches refusal before the installation depth. This paper briefly describes the current offshore foundation practice, the BAUER technology for onshore pile installation by drilling, the BAUER experiences in the offshore

Efficient Offshore Wind Turbine Foundations
Wind Engineering, 2005In the oil and gas industry, the foundations of offshore platforms have, for decades, used the grouted technique. This technology has now been transferred into the offshore wind turbine industry. This paper gives details of the use of the technology in some of the first offshore windfarms in Europe and considers future design possibilities.

Foundations for an offshore wind turbine
2010Worldwide energy demand is growing rapidly, and there is great interest in reducing the current reliance on fossil fuels for uses such as power generation, transportation, and manufacturing. Renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, are abundant but have very low power densities.
