A05 - Marine Riser with Landing String

This example considers the deployment of landing string through a marine riser. The simulation is performed in a series of separate stages, considering different lengths of landing string deployed, in conjunction with various degrees of vessel offset. The example is divided into the following sections:

•Introduction gives an overview of the riser simulation, and notes some of the more important features of Flexcom which are relevant to this type of analysis.

•Model Summary describes the model in more detail, and describes how parameters and variations are used to quickly assemble a relatively complex model, and create all the keyword files necessary to simulate the landing string deployment.

•Analyses briefly describes the various steps in the analysis sequence.

•Results presents pertinent outputs from the various analyses performed, created using summary postprocessing and collation, which is central to the assessment of the simulation matrix.
