Numerical and experimental studies on pipeline laying for intake Deep Ocean Water are carried out. In the numerical study, an implicit finite difference algorithm is employed for three-dimensional pipe equations. Fluid non-linearity and bending stiffness are considered and solved by Newton-Raphson iteration. Seabed is modeled as elastic foundation with linear spring and damper. Top tension and general configuration of pipeline at a depth are predicted. It is found that control for tension to prevent being large curvature of pipeline is needed on th steep seabed and, it should be considered 23.5 ton of tension at a top of pipe on the process of pipeline laying at 400m of water depth The largest top tension of pipe on condition of the beam sea during pipe laying is shown from the experiment. The results of this study can be contributed to the design of pipeline laying for upwelling deep ocean water.

The reel-lay method of submarine pipelines a continuous string of pipe coiled onto a reel. Assembly of this pipe that is string is accomplished onshore by welding, and nondestructive testing is carried out prior to coiling the pipe. The total length of pipes on the reel depends on the reel and pipe diameters. Pipeline installation is accomplished by uncoiling, straightening the pipe, and laying out the pipe string onto the seabed as the barge moves forward. Installation associated with coiling and uncoiling is related to the bending moment and strain relationship of the pipeline, A highgrade pipe material is required when the reel-lay method is used. This paper is concerned with the highly plastic bending moment of the pipeline, including the effect of ovality. Moment calculation in the pipe is accomplished by the numerical method, including the variable ovalities during the plastic bending of the pipe string. The new calculation method of the high plastic bending moment was applied to the reel-lay method.

This experiment was carried out to compare soil moisture contents and the amounts of irrigation water by varying irrigating methods for chinese cabbages. The irrigating methods were non-irrigation (Plot A), furrow irrigation(Plot B). fixed nozzle pipe irrigation(Plot C), subsoil pipeline irrigation at the depths of 15cm. and 30cm., laying out in the middle of the rows of chinese cabbages(Plot D) and subsoil pipeline irrigation at the depths of 15cm, and 30cm., laying out beneath the rows of the roots of chinese cabbages(Plot E). In this experiment soil moisture contents were measured by using a simple electric device. As a result, the fallowing items are derived; 1) A significionce of 5% was observed between the yields produced at the furrow irrigation plot and fixed nozzle pipe irrigation plot, and those at the non-irrigation plot and subsoil pipe-line irrigation plot. 2) In the subsoil pipe-line irrgatiion, the Plot D type was observed to be slightly better than the Plot E type in the effect of the growth of cabbages. 3) The ratio of the amounts of irrigation water applied in the furrow irrigation plot, fixed nozzle pipe irrigation plot and subsoil pipe-line irrigation plot is approximately 3.2:2.1.

Offshore pipelines have to withstand combined actions of tension and bending during deepwater installation, which can possibly lead to elliptical buckle and even catastrophic failure of whole pipeline. A 2D theoretical model initially proposed by Kyriakides and his co-workers which carried out buckling response analysis of elastic-plastic tubes under various load combinations, is further applied to investigate buckling behavior of offshore pipelines under combined tension and bending. In association with practical pipe-laying circumstances, two different types of loadings, i.e., bent over a rigid surface in the presence of tension, and bent freely in the presence of tension, are taken into account in present study. In order to verify the accuracy of the theoretical model, numerical simulations are implemented using a 3D finite element model within the framework of ABAQUS. Excellent agreement between the results validates the effectiveness of this theoretical method. Then, this theoretical model is used to study the effects of some important factors such as load type, loading path, geometric parameters and material properties etc. on buckling behavior of the pipes. Based upon parametric studies, a few significant conclusions are drawn, which offer a theoretical reference for design and installation monitoring of deepwater pipelines.

In this paper, the effects of nonlinear soft clay on dynamic embedment of offshore pipeline were investigated. Seabed embedment by pipe-soil interactions has impacts on the structural boundary conditions for various subsea structures such as pipeline, riser, pile, and many other systems. A number of studies have been performed to estimate real soil behavior, but their estimation of seabed embedment has not been fully identified and there are still many uncertainties. In this regards, comparison of embedment between field survey and existing empirical models has been performed to identify uncertainties and investigate the effect of nonlinear soil parameter on dynamic embedment. From the comparison, it is found that the dynamic embedment with installation effects based on nonlinear soil model have an influence on seabed embedment. Therefore, the pipe embedment under dynamic condition by nonlinear parameters of soil models was investigated by Dynamic Embedment Factor (DEF) concept, which is defined as the ratio of the dynamic and static embedment of pipeline, in order to overcome the gap between field embedment and currently used empirical and numerical formula. Although DEF through various researches is suggested, its range is too wide and it does not consider dynamic laying effect. It is difficult to find critical parameters that are affecting to the embedment result. Therefore, the study on dynamic embedment factor by soft clay parameters of nonlinear soil model was conducted and the sensitivity analyses about parameters of nonlinear soil model were performed as well. The tendency on dynamic embedment factor was found by conducting numerical analyses using OrcaFlex software. It is found that DEF was influenced by shear strength gradient than other factors. The obtained results will be useful to understand the pipe embedment on soft clay seabed for applying offshore pipeline designs such as on-bottom stability and free span analyses.

With the increase in the exploitation depth of offshore oil and gas, it is possible to control the global buckling of deep-sea pipelines by the snake lay method. Previous studies mainly focused on the analysis of critical buckling force and critical temperature of pipelines under the snake-like laying method, and pipelines often suffer structural failure due to seismic disasters during operation. Therefore, seismic action is a necessary factor in the design and analysis of submarine pipelines. In this paper, the seismic action of steel pipes in the operation stage after global buckling has occurred under the active control method is analyzed. Firstly, we have established a simplified finite element model for the entire process cycle and found that this modeling method is accurate and efficient, solving the problem of difficult convergence of seismic wave and soil coupling in previous solid analysis, and improving the efficiency of calculations. Secondly, through parameter analysis, it was found that under seismic action, the pipe diameter mainly affects the stress amplitude of the pipeline. When the pipe wall thickness increases from 0.05 m to 0.09 m, the critical buckling force increases by 150%, and the maximum axial stress decreases by 56%. In the pipe soil interaction, the greater the soil viscosity, the greater the pipe soil interaction force, the greater the soil constraint on the pipeline, and the safer the pipeline. Finally, the pipeline failure determination formula was obtained through dimensionless analysis and verified, and it was found that the formula was accurate.

본 논문은 도시 가스 지하배관의 위험관리체계를 유지하는데 필요한 요소들 중 배관의 위험성평가에 적절한 기법을 제안하고, 그 평가결과에 근거하여 가장 비용-효과가 큰 배관 유지관리방안을 찾아내는데 그 목적이 있다. 본 연구에서 제안된 지하배관의 위험성서열화의 접근방법은 세 가지 측면에서 행하여졌는데, 첫째는 RBI(Risk Based Inspection)으로서 배관의 위험도에 영향을 주는 주변인구조건, 관의 크기 및 두께. 사용시간 등을 기준으로 일차적 평가를 함으로서 노출위험도의 높고 낮음을 정성적으로 평가하였고, 둘째는 Scoring System으로서 매설된 배관의 환경적인 요소에 기초하여 점수화하여 구체적으로 위험도를 서열화 하였다. 셋째로는 THOMAS 이론으로부터 대상배관의 누출빈도를 정량화 하였다. 그 결과 도시 가스 대상배관의 노출위험도는 대략 중간이상의 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났으며, 제안된 SPC기법을 적용하여 위험성을 평가한 결과, 대상배관의 부식위험성 점수 값이 허용범위(30-70)에 골고루 분포하는 것으로 보아 설정된 평가기준이 실제배관에 대해 상대적인 부식위험성을 잘 서열화 됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한 THOMAS모델을 적용한 평가결과로서의 Score값은 배관의 길이를 포함한 여러 치수들에 무관한 환경요인에 관련된 값인 반면, 기본누출빈도는 배관의 길이를 포함해서 다른 치수들에 비례함을 보여주고 있다. 그 결과 점수 값이 상대적으로 적은 배관구간(상대적으로 위험성이 낮은 구간)도 배관길이가 훨씬 더 크다면 누출발생빈도가 더 높은 값을 갖는다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 대상 파이프라인의 허용위험수용범위는 전체 누출 빈도 값인 최대 1.00E-01/yr로부터 최소 2.50E-02의 영역을 나타내고 있어 이에 상응되는 높은 Consequence를 수용 가능한 영역으로 낮추는 조치가 필요함을 보여주고 있고, 종합파손확률에 대해 사용시간을 회기 분석법(Regression Analysis)으로 예측한 결과, 이에 대한 방정식을 유추할 수 있었고, 그에 대한 결과가 대상 파이프라인의 사용 년 수인 11년에서 13년으로 나타나 실제 대상배관들의 연령과 거의 일치함을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제안된 위험성 서열화 접근방법은 실제적으로 지하배관의 유지관리를 하는데 있어서 매우 효율적으로 적용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
