Parametric analysis on the global design of flexible riser under different environmental conditions using OrcaFlex.

ABSTRACT: The application of flexible risers has led to increased production of fluid contents in the marine industry. This paper presents the design challenges of a flexible riser subjected to internal pressure under deep-water conditions, at a water depth of 2000 m. Parametric variations with extensive dynamic analysis were carried out. The study highlights include the global analysis of lazy-wave configuration for the design of flexible risers, to understand the failure of flexible risers and application of hybrid configurations on flexible pipes. For the global analysis, the design of the riser was modelled in OrcaFlex by considering different sections and then analysed for the influence of effective tension, bending moment and environmental conditions. This riser model is multi-layered and was
