Design by Analysis (DBA)
DBA requirements are organized based on protection against failure modes (plastic collapse, local failure, buckling and cyclic loading).
DBA is more accurate and sophisticate than ‘design by rule’.
 
  • Plastic collapse analysis
  • Local failure analysis
  • Buckling analysis
  • Fatigue analysis
  • Ratcheting analysis
  • Lifting/transportation analysis
  • Blast resistant design
  • Passive fire protection (PFP) design
  • Impact analysis
  • Vibration monitoring & remediation
  • Post weld heat treatment (PWHT) analysis
  • Heat transfer efficiency analysis
  • Hydrodynamic analysis

Equipment/model types

  • Pressure vessels
  • Special connection design including gusset plate, web penetration whole and reinforcement
  • Composite section design
  • Pipe whip restraint
  • LNG pipeline shroud
  • Stack
  • Pipelines
  • Weld
  • Lifting and transportation jig
  • Heat exchanger
Integrity Assessment & Fitness For Service (FFS)
FFS is a multi-disciplinary engineering analysis of equipment to determine whether it is fit for continued service until the next shutdown.
Equipment may contain flaws, not meet current design standards or be subjected to more severe operation condition than original design.
FFS assessments helps to make a decision to run as is, alter, repair, monitor or replace; guidance on an inspection interval is also provided.

 

 

 
FFS services include:
  • Various material types (i.e. , steel and composite material)
  • Analysis model is built up based on measured data (i.e., corroded thickness and 3D scanned data)
  • Corrosion and erosion/laminations/hydrogen blisters, HIC & SOHIC damage/bulges & out-of-roundness distortion/dents, gouges and dent-gouge combinations
  • Crack-like flaws, including creep, stress corrosion, fatigue, and corrosion-fatigue crack growth/remaining life
  • Creep and creep-fatigue damage
  • Fire damage/thermal and mechanical fatigue
  • Bolted flange leak and ring joint flange cracking
  • Provide retrofit plans
  • High-temperature assessments and creep studies
  • Fire damage assessments

 

 

 

 

 
 
 
 
Equipment/model types:
  • FCCU’s/reactors
  • Regenerators
  • Pressure vessels
  • Furnace
  • Heat exchangers
  • Dryers
  • Process piping & pipeline
  • Storage tanks
  • Control building on offshore platform

Renewable Energy – Offshore Floating Wind Turbine​

A floating wind turbine consists of wind turbine (RNA and tower), floating platform, station keeping system(mooring system), power cable line​

The floating wind turbine is a dynamic system that is subjected to steady forces of wind, current and mean wave drift, as well as wind, current and wave-induced dynamic forces. Also, the motion of floating wind turbine is governed by the motion of wind turbine. ​

The floating wind turbine system is complex system, and all system components should be analyzed and designed interactively

Offshore Wind Turbine Services include
  • FEED design​
  • Fully coupled global performance analysis ​

Fully coupled model, including components; ​ turbine RNA, tower, hull, station-keeping ​ system and power cable
