“Computer Aided Design and Analysis of Subsea Engineering Systems in Oil and Gas Resources Development”
Description:
Sub-sea oil and gas reserves are increasingly important sources of energy, as well as a significant driver of the international economy. There are billions of barrels of oil and trillions of cubic feet of natural gas predicted to lie
within federally controlled waters in the deepwater alone. The major problem is that the reserves lie underneath 10,000 feet of water, presenting unprecedented engineering challenges. The technical challenges in designing reliable well drilling and oil producing systems in this environment manifest themselves as heat transfer of multi-phase flow in wellbores and pipes, fluid-solid interactions of flexible structures (such as risers and pipelines), reliability of materials in the presence of corrosion (due to sea water), and integration and control of complete subsea systems. The purpose of this symposium is to promote communication among scientists and engineers in research and development of sub-sea systems with the aid of modern computing technologies.
