Research Programme for Offshore Major Hazards: Strategic Insights and Future Directions

DESCRIPTION

This document outlines the Research and Development (R&D) initiatives under the Offshore Major Hazards Programme led by Malcolm Birkinshaw. It emphasizes strategic considerations in managing offshore facilities, including ageing infrastructure and safety innovations. The research portfolio covers various themes such as metocean data, structural integrity, and human factors, with a significant investment in extramural projects. It aims to enhance safety standards and operational efficiency in offshore environments while addressing emerging challenges in the industry.

  1. Research Programme for Offshore Malcolm Birkinshaw June 2006

  2. Organisation For R & D Major Hazards Programme R & D Nuclear, Onshore, Offshore Major Hazards Research is Programme led (e.g. KP3) Technical Support is incident led Extramural and HSL Expert Sources HSL is R & D supplier of 1st Choice

  3. Strategic Considerations • HSC Science Strategy 2005 – 2008 hse.gov.uk/research/content/strategy0508.pdf • Major Hazards Strategic Programme 2005 – 2008 (internal document) • HID Strategy hse.gov.uk/hid/deliveryplan/ • Offshore Division Science and Technology Strategy Nov 2004 • Hse.gov.uk/offshore/scitechstrat/scitech.pdf

  4. Offshore S & T Strategy Themes • Ageing facilities • Change management • Floating systems/new development • Revitalising health and safety

  5. Extramural R & D • Current Portfolio: £1.8 m • Pre 02/03: 1 Project • 02/03 : 4 Projects • 03/04 : 3 Projects • 04/05 : 6 Projects • O5/06 : 4 Projects • 06/07 : 2 Projects

  6. Extramural Themes (1) • Metocean: ISO validation pilot, UK wave map, airgap • Structural Integrity: blast wall strength, corrosion inspection; fatigue HSS • Floaters: offloading; Roll JIP; flexible riser JIP • Shift workers circadian rhythms • Blowouts frequency data collection

  7. Extramural Themes (2) • Guidelines: avoidance of pipe vibration; elastomer seals in explosive environments; • Collaborative work with CAA for heliops • Review of practices in shipping industry for managing ships collision

  8. HSL Work for OSD • 04/05 £687k; 05/06 £555k • 105 projects (mainly small) • incident related testing and analysis (diving, wire ropes, gas dispersion) • aid to development of OSD F & B strategy • generic explosion modelling comparisons • weathered PFP testing • gas detector operability

  9. Waiting Extramural (1) • £460k estimate 10 Projects • Metocean • joint probability calculation of extreme water levels • Public domain hind cast data to assess joint probability of extreme water levels • Calculation of air gap for NS Fixed installations using ISO 19901-1

  10. Waiting Extramural (2) • Structural Integrity • Residual stress in welded joints • Framework for SI management of fixed jacket structures • Techniques and technologies underpinning management of ageing installations • SI monitoring: review and appraisal of current technologies

  11. Waiting Extramural - 3 • Performance based explosion resistant design • Safety on drill floor – driller’s supervision • FPSO failures database

  12. Future • Ageing Installations: technology underpinning extension; framework for management; monitoring review; foundation safety; explosion resistant design; safety on drill floor ( drilling supervision); carbon sequestration • More stakeholder collaboration • Tighter Funds For External Resources • Cross Sector Cutting Themes
