Designing a template that can monitor and correct pile inclination
Innovation Support Engineering
Pre-piling Template Design
We designed and coordinated the conceptual design of a subsea pre-piling template to monitor and correct pile inclination during offshore installation.
At a glance
Challenge
Our client required a subsea pre-piling template that could monitor and correct pile inclination during offshore installation.
Actions
We performed a dynamic over-turning moment analysis that incorporated template-soil and pile-soil interaction alongside environmental loading analysis using Orcaflex.
Benefits
Our analysis resulted in considerable weight savings without compromising on offshore workability. Additionally, we designed the hydraulic levelling system.
Solution
We designed a lighter and, therefore, lower-cost template, which was easier to handle offshore. This project was executed alongside partners Tillen and PT Structural.
The HES Approach
Enable
We enable clients to have a clear, reliable, and data-driven understanding of the associated timeframe and costs for their offshore wind farm development.
Improve
We improve project duration, cost, and weather downtime by applying our specialist knowledge and services to develop robust and cost-effective construction strategies for our clients.
De-risk
We de-risk projects by further defining installation processes, optimizing critical operations, and providing clear insights on construction risks that could impact on duration or cost.
Innovation Support Engineering
We support clients by developing offshore products and equipment that are suited to their projects. We apply structural analysis, and by using our engineering capabilities and operational knowledge, we can ensure effectiveness in our equipment designs.
