Advances in Deepwater TLP's
 Back to Calendar
January 27 - 28, 2003 · Houston, Texas
IBC’s forthcoming Advances in Deepwater TLPs Forum will address how the drive towards deeper waters has lead operators and contractors in the GoM, West Africa and Brazil to invest in developing the technology to enable TLPs in water depths of up to 10,000ft.
Attend this event and get an insight into how composite technology can solve the challenge of reducing the weight of risers & tendons in a bid to cost-effectively operate TLPs in deep waters. Key industry experts will highlight the technical, operational and economical challenges of using TLPs in deepwater developments.
Key Industry Players Include: ABB Lummus Global Aker Kvaerner American Global Maritime, Inc. Atlantia Offshore Det Norske Veritas Fugro GEOS INTEC Engineering MODEC International Oil States Industries Sea Engineering Shell International
Key Challenges to be Addressed:
Composite riser & tethers
Mono-column TLPs – a viable solution for deepwater
developments
Effects of TLP motions on design of risers
Modified tendon systems – the key to ultra-deepwater
Economics and benefits of TLPs vs. Spars
Extending water depth range and payload capacity
