| Description |
This is a Joint
Industry Project (JIP). Phase I was a calibration task to study the effects of Hurricane
Andrew on platforms (i.e. survived, damaged, or failed). The outcomes were used to
update current practices for assessing the ability of in-place platforms to withstand
hurricanes. This calibration approach became part of API's RP 2A standard for
assessing existing offshore platforms. |
