... A study is presented of the potential capacity of pipeline vibration dampers (PVDs) to mitigate vortex induced vibration (VIV) for subsea pipeline spans. The study also makes evaluations for VIV fatigue damage reductions that could be accomplished by PVDs for the spans. While it is recognized...

... The jumpers are typically curved pieces used to connect manifold system to wells head. In the area, it is normally exposed to significant currents. So the jumpers are subject to vortex induced vibration (VIV). However, the experimental method for prediction of vortex induced vibration (VIV...

... Abstract Improvement to the efficiency of pre-salt well delivery was achieved by implementing detailed planning with cross discipline teams who developed a complete vibration mitigation program that became indispensable in critical wells, such as the ones in Ultra Deep Water Pre-Salt...

... Abstract In the present contribution, we address the use of continuous vibration measurements to detect rupture of wires in the tensile armor layers of flexible risers. The interest in structural health monitoring of these components of deep and ultradeep water petroleum production systems has...

... Abstract This paper demonstrates how Forward Synchronous Whirl (FSW), when induced in an underreaming while drilling BHA through the application of an Asymmetric Vibration Damping Tool (AVDT), substantially reduces both stick-slip and lateral vibrations and significantly improves drilling...
