Drag force due to Yaw Rate
For wind drag, the yaw rate term is insignificant and will be omitted from the
calculations; but it is still influential for wave drag to describe the motions of FPSO.
The drag due to yaw rate can be expressed by the following formula.

4.4. Stiffness, Damping and Added Mass Loads
The stiffness, damping coefficient and added mass and are important hydrodynamic
variables for evaluating the FPSO motions. These parameters refer to the forces
which are described in the following.
Stiffness Load
Force due to stiffness occurs when the vessel is offset from the equilibrium position.
The stiffness (heave, roll and pitch) can be represented by the stiffness matrix and it

5. Motions of Riser
In the simulation, a riser is divided into a series of line segments which are then
modeled by straight-massless model where each segment will have node at each end.
The segments will represent axial and torsional stresses occurred in the riser. On the
other hand, properties such as mass, weight and buoyancy will all lump to the nodes.
A line segment is divided into two halves and the properties such as mass, weight,
buoyancy and drag coefficient of each halfsegment will be lumped to the node at the
segment end. Forces and moments are calculated in 4 categories and applied at the
nodes.
1. Tension Forces
2. Bend Moments
3. Circumferential force
4. Shear Forces (neglected due to insignificant magnitude)
5.1. Tension Force
The tension of each segment is calculated by using the linear stiffness assumption. In
this case, the linear axial stiffness represents the axial spring and damper at the center
of each segment. A mathematic expression for the tensile force is described below.

The wall tension (T

) is tension on the riser measured at the pipes circumference. It
consists of three main components. First is the elongation tension in axial direction,
the second is the tension due to the line pressure effect and the last is due to the
damping effect. The wall tension can be described by the following equation.

7. Recommended Practices for the Design
The API 2RD design practices are widely used in the offshore industry to provide the
guideline for the safe and practical design. The critical design parameters are such as
maximum stress, bending moment, hydrostatic collapse and the fatigue life which
will be explained more in this chapter.
7.1. Stress Element
Three principle stresses will be investigated at the critical sections along the length of
riser to ensure that the principle stress is under the allowable quantity. For plain
cylinder riser, the principle stress will be classified as one of the following.
Table 1: Stress definition according to API 2RD
Primary
Any normal or shear stress that is necessary to have static equilibrium
of the imposed forces and moments. Thus, if a primary substantially
exceeds the yield strength, either failure or gross structural yielding
will occur.
Membrane
o
p
is the average value across the thickness of solid
section excluding the effects of discontinuities and stress
concentrations. For example, the general primary
membrane a loaded in pure tension is the tension
divided by the cross- sectional area. o
p
may include
bending as in the case of simple pipe loaded by a
bending moment.
Bending
o
b
is the portion of primary stress proportional to from
centroid of a cross section, excluding the effects of
discontinuities and stress concentrations.
Secondary
o
q
is any normal or shear stress that develops as a result of material
restraint. This type of stress is self-limiting which means that local
yielding can relieve the conditions that cause the stress, and a single
application of load will not cause failure.
31
7.2. von Mises stress
For plain round pipe, where transverse shear and torsion are negligible, three
principal stress components of primary membrane stress will be equivalent to von
Mises stress. The equation is showed in the equation below.

7.4. Collapse Pressure
Riser design must be ensured that it will not be collapsed during any operations.
Therefore, the riser should be able to withstand hydrostatic pressure at any time
during installation, production as well as workover. The effect of variations in pipe
thickness, ovality, eccentricity and residual stress from pipe manufacturing should be
included in the pipe collapse pressure. The allowable collapse pressure and collapse
pressure for round pipe can be calculated by using the following formula.

For a pipe designed to meet the external collapse criteria outlined above, collapse
will be initiated at a lower pressure by accidents e.g. impact or excessive bending
due to tensioner failure. The maximum allowable collapse pressure will be done
using the formula below to ensure the pressure differential will be less than the
predicted propagation pressure.

7.5. Fatigue Life of Riser
The fatigue damage in riser comprises of several contributions such as vessel
motions, direct wave loads, transportation and VIV. Damage due to vessel motions
can be further split into that due to the wave-frequency and the slowly-varying
motions. The former refers to the small in the stress magnitude but comparatively
rapid in the return periods. Whereas the latter can be perceived as an enormous in
magnitude, but less frequent in term of return period. In the API practices, the design
fatigue life should be at least 3 times greater than the service life (SF 3). This
recommendation will be applied for any locations that the safety and pollution risk
are low and the regular inspection is possible. On the other hand, for locations where
the riser cannot be inspected regularly or the safety and pollution risk are highly
concerned, the design fatigue life is recommended to be at least 10 times the service
life (SF 10). In this study, the environment in the Timor Sea is considered as a
tolerable condition which the regular inspection and maintenance can be performed
regularly. Therefore, the design factor of 3 will be used to evaluate the riser design in
this project.
Service life Design factor Fatigue life =

35
where
Design factor = 3.0
Service life = 15-20 years
7.6. Rainfall Counting
The rainfall counting technique is used to analyze the stress time history and present
it in form the stress range and the time crossing period. With this technique, the
fatigue damage created by different sea states can be integrated by using Minors rule
which is very effective way to analyze fatigue damage in complicate structures.
7.7. S-N Curve
An S-N curve defines cycles to failure of structures subjected to cyclic loadings. The
S-N curve can be derived from either direct experimental or follow the API
recommended numbers. Generally, the API Class X is a recommended code for the
riser design and it can be expressed by the following equation.

8.2. General Information about the Timor Sea
The Timor Sea is the relatively shallow sea bounded from the north by the Timor
Island, from the south by Australia and from the west by the Indian Ocean. Beneath,
considerable oil and gas reserves are laid. Nowadays, numbers of offshore
production platforms and drilling rigs are in operations in the shallow water depth
areas and also trench in the deepwater regions.
Montara field is an oil development filed operated by PTTEP Australasia in the shelf
region of the Timor Sea. This field is situated 250 km southwest of the Timor Island
and 685 km west of the Darwin city in Australia. The metocean data have been
collected extensively in Montara and Jabiru field which is another field nearby. The
measuring data provides the fundamental information about wind, wave and current
which are essential to evaluate the riser design.
For the Timor Sea, key oceanographic features are listed below.
- The Pacific-Indian ocean flow likely generates persistent west to west-
south currents.
- The monsoons are the controlling factor of metocean in the Timor Sea for
the short return period wind and wave. Tide is a dominant factor to
control the oceanic current.
- The Coriolis effect is comparatively weak due to the low latitude and the
tropical cyclones are likely immature. However, small but intense tropical
cyclones could control the long return period waves and winds.

Wave Climate
The ambient wave climate for the Montara field is composed of separated sea and
swell waves, with a wind-sea/swell separation of 9 seconds (0.111 Hz) found from
the plotted Jabiru wave spectra. The combination using the square root of the sum of
the square wave height results in the total waves.
2 2
total sea swell
Hs Hs Hs = + .............................. (24)
Sea Waves
Sea waves are waves locally generated by wind. As such, the sea wave climate is
very closely allied with the summer westerlies and winter easterlies. Transient
variations to these persistent seasonal regimes are caused by the various storm types,
which occasionally affect the region. As a result of the very long fetched storm, sea
waves may have periods ranging from 2 or 4 seconds to as long as 6 or 8 seconds.
Swell Waves
Surface wind waves which are generated by remote storms (i.e. 400 - 7000 km away)
and propagate to a site independently of the storm, are known as swell. In the
Southern Hemisphere, swell results predominantly from storms in the Southern
Ocean or the southern portion of the Indian Ocean. After generation, swell may
propagate towards the equator, gradually dispersing and decreasing in amplitude
before arriving at the Timor Sea from the southwest. Since longer period swell suffer
less dissipation, periods of long-travelled swell are usually greater than 14 seconds
commonly ranging up to 20 seconds and occasionally exceeding 22 seconds. Shorter
period swell (6 to 10 seconds), may result from tropical cyclones, and from winter
easterlies over the Arafura Sea and eastern portions of the Timor Sea.

Non-Cyclonic Storm Waves
The summer and winter monsoonal and trade wind surges also generate the strongest
non-cyclonic storm waves, which could be coupled with the perennial west-
southwest background swell component. It could result in the maximum non-
cyclonic total sea states. These non-cyclonic total sea states are the controlling storm
type for the shorter return periods less than 5 years. Applying a minimum total
significant wave height threshold of 2.7 m (annual), 2.7 m (summer) and 2.5 m
(winter) to the measured ambient wave database in the Montara Field and excluding
any tropical cyclone events resulted in the annual extreme events. These extreme
wave events are then subjected to the Conditional Weibull extreme analysis
technique. The corresponding parameters such as the extreme significant wave
heights (H
s
), return period mean wave periods (T
m
), spectral peak periods (T
p
) and
average zero crossing periods (T
z
) are derived from the storm peak correlations and
shown in the table below.

8.4. FPSO Simulation Model
The FPSO model is constructed based on information derived from an existing
Montara FPSO and the specifications are described in the following table. For the
hydrodynamic parameters such as the displacement and wave load RAO will be
adopted from the typical ship-shaped FPSO. These detail information of FPSOs
hydrodynamic parameters will be provided in the appendix.

To justify he pipe specifications above, calculation is made according to the API
practices. The allowable stress in pipe, fracture toughness requirement, riser
deflection, and collapse pressure and collapse propagation will be checked with the
pipe properties. Below is the simulated case when 1 meter wave with about 6-8
second return period is approaching the FPSO.
Allowable Stress in Plain Pipe
The figure below illustrates combined stress profiles from top to bottom of riser. The
minimum, maximum and mean of von Mises stress are plotted in the graph in blue,
green and black respectively. The red line is the limiting stress for steel pipe which is
greater than the combined stress for every pipe section. The Riser API 2RP
Utilization, reported as percentage of pipe stress over the allowable stress, is
averaged at 0.4 with in a range of +/- 0.2. So, it proves that the purposed riser can
withstand the typical sea condition.

Therefore, the careful testing for steel toughness should be performed to compare the
results between different testing methods. The testing procedures such as Charpy
test, CTOD, drop weight tear test are standard test for steel used in the pipeline
industry.
Riser Maximum Deflection
The maximum riser deflection is specified to prevent the excessive high bending
stress in riser which may cause riser leakage and failure. Even when the riser stress is
under the manufactures recommended, the larger riser deflection is needed to be
controlled to prevent multiple risers from interfering and crashing. Therefore, the
riser system may include additional equipment such as tensioners, flexible
connections and telescopic joints to provide bending and rotating abilities of the
riser. These tools should be designed at the worse condition in the extreme case
analysis.
Two figures illustrated below indicated smoothly change of the curvature and
bending radius of riser. The maximum bending stress occurred at 2000 meter where
the riser is gently approaches the sea bed. The maximum curvature this particular
point is averaged at 0.0006 rad/m which is the relatively low when compare with
other stress component. Therefore, the planned riser configuration with this
trajectory seems to be applicable in the real operations.

9. Sensitivity Analysis
The sensitivity analyses are performed to investigate the relationship between key
design parameters and the riser internal stress. Several parameters such as the outside
diameter, risers length, initial position, FPSO size, simulation time and the length
per segment will be examined in this study. The study excludes wave drift motion
effect in order to avoid model complexity and enormous time required for
simulation, but the study will focus more on the effect due to the heave and pitch
oscillating motions because they are believed as the primary factors influence to the
fatigue life.

9.5. Sensitivity Analysis: Simulation Time
The purpose of the study is to find the optimum time step to minimize the
computational error. Under the same condition as in the previous study, the
simulation times vary from 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 minutes. Next, the fatigue
damage derived from different simulation time will be scaled up to 1 year damage
for the comparison. From the results, there is no significant difference among
different cases which maybe because the steady wave assumption used in the study.
If the waves are modelled by using irregular wave model e.g. JONSWAP, the
simulation time may have more influence on the result accuracy. The study in the
next chapter will be based on the regular wave assumption; therefore 10 minute
simulation time will be used for e time effectiveness without sacrificing accuracy.

Under the same condition, the length per segment is varied from 10, 8, 6, 4 to 2
meter to investigate the effect of them with the result accuracy. Generally, the
smaller the length is the better the accuracy, but simulation will become very time
consuming process for a very fine segment. From the result, the segment length has
negligible effect on the result accuracy. The first case result, assumed to have the
highest accuracy because the length is the shortest, is just slightly different from
other cases. The 4th case seems to be the optimum point because it will balance
between accuracy and time required for simulation because it gives 96.6% accuracy
before the accuracy decreases to 92.4% in case the next case. Hence, the length of 8
meters will be used to model the riser in the probabilistic fatigue analysis.

10. Probabilistic Fatigue Life
10.1. Waves for Fatigue Calculation
Data available for this study included 1 year of measured directional wave data (1995
1996) from Jabiru location presenting the ambient wave data, and 35 years of
modeled tropical cyclone wave height, period and direction time series to represent
the storm wave climate. From the deterministic fatigue analysis, it provides estimates
of the number of single waves that might affect a marine facility in a nominated
lifetime. Modeled ambient data are combined with model storm data with the limit
that H
s
values should not exceed the return period value corresponding to the
exposure period. The probability of occurrence of waves for a range of wave height
intervals is determined for each H
s
using the Forristall (1978) distribution shown
below. The distribution and table represent wave height and wave period of
individual waves generated in 20 years return periods in octane directions.
In the probabilistic fatigue analysis, data in scatter diagrams are compressed into a
smaller number of bins which the bins represent waves in a particular directions. The
integration is done by selecting the wave period and lumping all wave height
associated with that particular period. The equivalent wave height (H
se
) for each
period (T
z
) is calculated by using the weighted average of wave numbers with the H
6
s
due to the fact that stress range is raised to the approximate power of three of the S-N
curve, and relationship between the wave height and the wave load has a power of
two approximately. By this mean, the compressed sea state bins can be calculated
and shown in the following table.

11. Discussion
Fatigue life is critically important for the riser design because the riser failure could
cause major accidents which are extremely harmful for human and environment.
Therefore, several methods are developed to estimate the fatigue life of riser. One of
them is by using computer simulation which engineers constructed the riser model
based on the law of physics and experimental data to predict the stress and fatigue
damage. However, the procedures for estimation are still complicated, inconvenient
and required sophisticated computer software. Also, with lacking of powerful
computer in the past, it is nearly impossible to solve the system of hundred
differential equations simultaneously. Another problem is that the simulation
requires several inputs which most of them must be accurately measured at certain
locations or carefully collected from the experiment in the laboratory. All these make
the simulation expensive, time consuming and unproductive methodology for the
marginal projects. Alternatively, the riser analysis can be done by deterministic
calculations which the calculations are simplified by substituting input at the mean
value to reduce the simulation tasks and complexity of the overall process. However,
the results are highly uncertain, inclined to erroneous and unreliable especially for
situations that environmental loads are distributed over a broad spectrum.
In past several years, computer capability is incredibly improved. Now, a personal
computer can manage million commands and solve thousands equations
simultaneously which make the simulations is cheaper, simpler and easier and for
engineer. The simulation has been extending to be more sophisticated and be able to
include several interactions acted on the FPSO and riser. In this study, wave drift
force and vortex induced vibration (VIV) may be very influential factors the riser
fatigue life in certain circumstances such as deepwater productions. In the deepwater,
riser design will become more critical because the service life of riser is very
marginal when compared with the design fatigue life. Hence, these could be the
potential research topic for the further investigation.
82
12. Conclusion
In this study, a FPSO and riser models are constructed in Orcaflex which is the
commercial software to analyze the riser properties. The environmental load included
in the study is only the wave. Wind and current force are excluded from the study to
simplify the models and they are believed that they have considerably less influence
than the wave.
In the Orcaflex, waves are simulated from the measured data in the Timor Sea where
it would be a future deepwater project of PTTEP Australasia Limited. For the FPSO
model, it is constructed based on the current FPSO used in Montana field. A primary
engineering design for gas export riser has indicated that 13 OD with 1 thickness
should be sufficient to withstand all stresses based on the API recommendations.
Thereafter, sensitivity studies have been performed for several OD, riser length,
FPSO offset and FPSO size to identify the values which the optimal fatigue life can
be achieved. With the wall thickness of 1 inch, the study suggests that the risers
depth over half-span should be about 1.32 to compromise between the tensile stress
and the bending stress. And, this is where the minimal combined stress or so-called
von Mises stress will be achieved. Next, the FPSO length overall (LOA) should be
about 250 meters to achieve the good deck stability meanwhile not oversized the
FPSO. Lastly, the probabilistic fatigue analysis reveals that the P50 fatigue life is 85
years. This number satisfies the safety standard used in the API 2RP. In summary,
the study proves that the field development option by using FPSO and steel catenary
riser (SCR) as production facility is a possible development scheme for the
deepwater development in Timor Sea.
83
13. Recommendations
During the productions, the riser internal and external conditions should be
monitored to reveal whether design conditions have been exceeded. Monitoring and
recording fluid composition, internal pressure, external pressure and temperature in
the situations of storms and accidental loads also should be carried out. Regularly,
the riser should be visually examined for external damage, pipe distortion, excessive
curvature, marine growth, corrosion, changing conditions of buoyancy modules and
subsea buoys to ensure all equipment are in good condition. Moreover, the defection
of any equipment should be documented properly. Internal and external corrosion
should be measured appropriately by either direct or indirect method. The direct
method such as short test pipe or corrosion coupons should be installed in the riser
where the test material can be retrieved after certain intervals. As well as, the indirect
corrosion measurement should be applied to confirm the degradation of riser. This
information is essential to predict remaining life of the riser accurately. So as to, the
design philosophy should begin with the FEED which carefully integrals the regular
maintenances and inspections into the critical components of the system.
Furthermore, the regular inspection and preventive replacement should be available,
scheduled and clearly described in details as part of normal operating practices.
