Abstract

This paper introduces a review and literature study of offshore engineering and constructions from 1920s to 2000s. The study was focused on the literature survey and the history of Brown & Root and J. Ray McDermott in the Gulf of Mexico and other offshore areas Understanding the offshore history and background of offshore development is an essential ingredient for the initial conceptual design. This study was motivated to enhance the capacity of conceptual design and Front End Engineering Design (FEED) of offshore structures in Korea.
