Opportunities and Challenges to Develop Digital Twins for Subsea Pipelines

A vision of the digital twins subsea pipelines is provided in this paper, with a coverage current applications and challenges design, construction, service life, assessments life extension. Digital are described as paradigm combining multi-physics modelling data-driven analytics, which used to mirror its corresponding twin. Realistic virtual models structural systems shown bridge gap between design construction real worlds. Challenges properly using new tools how create accurate considering data acquired during phase discussed. The key opportunities for improved integrity management twin contextualization, standardization, automated anomaly detection, learning through sharing. collection, interpretation sharing data, cyber-security identified some main challenges.
