Informationen zum Autor Dr. Yong Bai obtained a Ph.D. in Offshore Structures at Hiroshima University! Japan in 1989. He is currently President of Offshore Pipelines and Risers (OPR Inc.! a design/consulting firm in the field of subsea pipelines! risers and floating systems. In the 1990's! he had been a technical leader for several Asgard Transport pipeline and flowline projects at JP Kenny as Manager of the advanced engienering department. Yong was previously a lead riser engineer at Shell and assisted in offshore rules development at the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) as Manager of the offshore technology department. While a professor! he wrote several books and served as a course leader on the design of subsea pipelines and irsers as well as design of floating systems. He also serves at Zhejiang University in China as professor. Dr. Qiang Bai obtained a doctorate for Mechanical Engineering at Kyushu University! Japan in 1995. He has more than 20 years of experience in subsea/offshore engineering including research and engineering execution. He has worked at Kyushu University in Japan! UCLA! OPE! JP Kenny! and Technip. His experience includes various aspects of flow assurance and the design and installation of subsea structures! pipelines and riser systems. Klappentext Offshore production systems have been growing much larger! more complex and demanding in terms of reliability! especially in evolving markets where infrastructure is lacking. Subsea Engineering Handbook is based on the authors' 30 years of experience in the design! analysis and installation of offshore structures and covers the entire spectrum of subjects in the discipline! from route selection and planning to design! construction! installation! materials and corrosion! inspection! welding! repair! risk assessment! and applicable design solutions. It yields a roadmap not only for the subsea engineer but also for the project managers! estimators and regulatory personnel hoping to gain an appreciation of the overall issues and directed approaches to subsea engineering design solutions. ...

Relazione
"Combined, the two authors have had long careers with major international firms and with academic institutions in the US, Japan, and Norway. They have prepared this book for aspiring subsea engineers, a discipline described in the preface as involving the "design, analysis, construction, installation and integrity management of subsea wellheads, trees, manifolds, jumpers PLETS and PLEMs...." Coverage is logically organized, beginning with subsea production systems (field development, distribution, surveying, positioning, and foundation, cost estimation, power supply, and risk & reliability, among other topics). Subsequent coverage includes flow assurance and system engineering; structures and equipment; and umbilical, risers & flowlines. With the Gulf oil spill, the world saw the consequences of poor engineering and management; this text is important for the thorough education of future practitioners." --Book News, Reference & Research
