This paper describes an in depth analysis of successful and unsuccessful offshore custom software development (CSD) projects. Offshore projects tend to be unsuccessful, because physical, time, cultural, organizational, and stakeholder distances negatively influence communication and knowledge exchange between onshore and offshore project team members. The success rate of 19 offshore CSD project...

The research on underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) has grown considerably in recent years where the main focus remains to develop a reliable communication protocol overcome its challenges between various sensing devices. purpose of UWSNs is provide low cost and an unmanned data collection system for range applications such as offshore exploration, pollution monitoring, oil gas pipeline...

This article presents the horizontal directional drilling (HDD) as one of most suitable technique used to reduce impact on environment during submarine pipe and cable installation process, especially in coastal area shallow waters. HDD is a drill subsea tunnel or under other designated with goal pull facility through drilled underground tunnel. With development offshore natural gas wind industr...

This paper analyses which sources of low-carbon hydrogen for the Northwest European market are most competitive, taking into account costs local production, conversion and transport. Production electrolysis strongly affected by renewable electricity capacity factors. Transport lowest pipelines distances under 10,000 km, with linearly increasing distance. For larger distances, transport as ammon...

This paper presents the development of an underwater crack detection system for structural integrity assessment submerged structures, such as offshore oil and gas installations, pipelines, foundations bridges, dams, etc. Our focus is on use machine-learning-based approaches. First, a detailed literature review state current methods surface presented, highlighting challenges opportunities. An ov...

Currently, the properties of composites have been harnessed on pipelines in marine offshore industry. In this study, bonded composite hose (MBCH) is presented. It aimed at understanding stress/strain distribution hoses using local design pressure under burst and collapse cases. This study also investigates material modelling, liner wrinkling, helical spring deformation, two MBCH models—with wit...

Buried pipes are extensively used for oil transportation from offshore platforms. Under unfavorable loading combinations, the pipe’s uplift resistance may be exceeded, which result in excessive deformations and significant disruptions. This paper presents findings a series of small-scale tests performed on buried geogrid-reinforced sands, with measured peak being to calibrate advanced numerical...

Video monitoring and surveillance of commercial fisheries in world oceans has been proposed by the governing bodies several nations as a response to crimes such overfishing. Traditional video systems may not be suitable due limitations offshore fishing environment, including low bandwidth, unstable satellite network connections issues preserving privacy crew members. In this paper, we present Á...

The application of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in offshore oil fields has received significant attention due to the potentially enormous amount of recoverable oil. However, EOR application offshore is in its very early stage due to conditions that are more complex than onshore oil fields, owing to the unique parameters present offshore. Therefore, successful EOR applications in offshore oil fie...

Customer relationship management (CRM) refers to a firm’s activities for establishing and maintaining relationships with its customers. Outsourcing refers to a firm’s contracting with another firm to perform activities that were erstwhile performed within the firm. The emergence of a low cost, high speed, global communication network and information processing network has enabled an increasing ...
