SINTEF and Equinor develop method to predict subsea riser fatigue
Research organisation SINTEF and Norwegian energy company Equinor have jointly developed a new method for predicting fatigue in subsea risers, the pipes connecting offshore installations to the seabed. Fatigue damage in risers is a key safety and maintenance concern for offshore oil and gas operations, and better prediction tools could help operators plan inspections and extend asset life.
Why now: Offshore industry interest in safer, cheaper monitoring of subsea equipment drives attention to the announcement.
