| Description |
The primary purpose of the project was to develop and document design
guidance for composite production risers based upon the results of the
Comparative Risk Analysis (CRA) of Steel and Composite Risers and other
recent industry experiences with composite risers. Design guidance focuses
on the design considerations that are unique to composite risers, while
incorporating the established design and analysis procedures for metallic
risers. |
