Description
Summary:Oil and gas production in subsea operation continues to the extreme depth. Harsh environment and severe operation of oil and gas transportation due to high pressure and temperature become crucial for pipeline transportation. Consequently, The pipelines will deform to buckle shape which affect to integrity of pipeline. This phenomenon should be considered in design of pipeline to provide reliability of pipeline operation during time life period. The design result of pipelines is according to DNV F 101 whereas the magnitude of pipeline curvature will validate by ANSYS 14 to ensure pipeline reliability.
