On Cubic Spudcan Deep Penetration in Dense Sand Overlying Non-Uniform Clay

Installing spudcans for jack-up rigs in a layered seabed with an interbedded strong-over-soft layer is challenging in the offshore industry due to possible punch-through failure. The methods currently used to predict punch-through failure mainly focus on generic spudcans, usually ignoring the geomet...
