Full Description
This examination focuses on the analytical methods used to assess seabed stability, critical to the integrity of marine structures. Key aspects include the evaluation of pore water pressure and soil shear strength.
Seabed stability is vital for the safety of numerous underwater installations, including pipelines and wind farms. A comprehensive understanding of the forces acting on the seabed ensures effective risk management in marine projects.
Candidates will be assessed on their verbal competency to describe stability analysis techniques, interpret stability results, and propose solutions to potential issues in seabed conditions.
Participants are encouraged to engage in discussions about the impacts of environmental factors, such as currents and earthquakes, on seabed stability.
