... ABSTRACT It has been 10 years since the presentation of ‘Wireline logging for deepwater geohazard assessment’ (Digby, 2002) given at the 5th International Conference of Offshore Site Investigation and Geotechnics (OSIG). This paper compares the state of wirelining logging for geological site...

The paper gives an operator''s perspective on the potential of different methodologies in correcting free-fall CPT Stinger data for deepwater site investigations. 1. Introduction Deepwater...

... ABSTRACT Traditionally offshore geotechnical drilling has been carried out using drilling systems that are mounted on either floating or fixed platforms on or above the water surface. However, as site investigations have moved into deeper water there is a move toward drilling systems located...
