1. INTRODUCTION

The present report is part of the ISO 19905-1 phase 2 Benchmark study based on the ISO 19905-1 DIS 2009 [ref 1] documenting a complete assessment in accordance with SNAME rev 3 [ref 1] in line with the Request for Bid [ref 2]. For the fixity calculations of the clay site, additional Deep Penetration Guidance is used [ref 4].

The analyses have been done for the MSC CJ62 jack-up for a typical North Sea sand site and a typical Gulf of Mexico clay site. Site specific soil data as applied have been received from the Benchmark Panel. Met-ocean conditions are selected by MSC to arrive at utilizations around 1.

The main analysis is performed using the in-house MSC jack-up analysis program LEGLOAD assisted with spreadsheets such as to perform checks and penetration analyses.

2. ASSESSMENT OF THE NORTH SEA-SAND SITE

This section documents the general input and results for the all sand site as provided which is taken to be a typical North Sea location with representative North Sea met-ocean conditions.

2.1. SITE CONDITIONS

The site assessment is performed for the unit in survival mode with selected 50-yr return period environmental conditions and received soil data for the site.

2.1.1. ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

The 50-yr return period omni-directional wind, waves, current and SWL are selected as listed below: • Max wave height 28.0 m • Associated wave period 15.8 s • Wind velocity (1 min) 45.0 m/s • Current velocity:

• At surface 1.00 m/s • 75% of depth 0.95 m/s • -50% of depth 0.90 m/s • 25% of depth 0.80 m/s • 1% of depth 0.50 m/s

• SWL above LAT 2.0 m

The wind velocity is defined at a height of 10 m above water level. For other heights the wind speed is given by: U(z) = U(10) x (z/10)0.09. The current speed is linearly interpolated between depth intervals.

No distinction is made between Intrinsic or Apparent wave period.

2.1.2. WATERDEPTH AND AIRGAP

The waterdepth at the site is taken as 104.7 m LAT. Maximum (total) water depth including SWL is then 106.7 m. An airgap of 25 m (to LAT) was taken.

Marine Structure Consultants (MSC) bv WIF-MSC-431.1.17

2.1.3. MARINE GROWTH

A marine growth thickness of 12.5 mm is taken into account on the entire leg length below MSL +2 m.

2.2. SOIL CONDITIONS

The soil conditions are taken from [ref 3] and summarized below: • Internal friction angle 34 deg • Effective submerged weight 11 kN/m3 • Steel-soil friction angle 29 deg • Relative density Dr 65% • Poisson’s ratio 0.2 • Shear modulus G 23765 x √(Vswl/(101.3A)

2.3. RIG DATA

See figures 2.1 and 2.2.

2.3.1. WEIGHT AND COG (loading conditions)

The elevated weight and eccentricities in survival conditions are taken from the Operations Manual.

The maximum elevated weight is 17118 t composed of light elevated weight and variable load. The minimum elevated weight is taken as lightweight plus 50% of the maximum variable load. For both maximum and minimum elevated weight the eccentricities relative to the center of legs are: • Longitudinal -2.20 m to +0.45 m (- is aft, + is forward) • Transverse 0.35 m to either side

2.3.2. LEGS

• Number of legs 3 • Longitudinal leg distance 53.7 m • Transverse leg distance 62.0 m • Type of leg triangular lattice • Bracing type X • Leg length 175.3 m • Leg face width 16 m • Spudcan diameter (equivalent) 17.84 m • Spudcan area 250 m2

The leg-to-hull connection is provided by active fixation systems on all chords.

2.3.3. Pre-load conditions

The applied pre-load is 152.9 MN at spudcan level.

2.4. LEG PENETRATION ESTIMATE

The method of section 6.2.3 is applied, using: • Steel/soil friction angle = 29 deg • γ’ = 11 kN/m3 • Nγ = 19.33 • Sγ = 0.6 • Pre-load = 152.9 MN

At full contact area the resistance is approx 285 MN. At pre-load, the equivalent contact diameter is 14.5 m approx., which agrees with 1.45 m penetration. Partial contact is achieved.

The results are closely comparable to ISO DIS 2009 leg penetration results. For consistency between the analyses, the same values are used further: • Leg penetration 1.4 m • Contact diameter 14 m

2.5. FOUNDATION STIFFNESS FOR THE FIXITY CASE

The effect of foundation fixity is included in the (fixity case) analysis, using a yield surface approach according to section 6.3.4. The shear modulus is selected using the Commentaries resulting in initial stiffness and capacities: • Vl0 152.9 MN • HL0 18.3 MN • ML0 160.5 MNm

• G 46 MN/m2 • K1 2340 MN/m • K2 222 MN/m • K3 918 MNm/deg

For the dynamic analysis (natural period calculation) the rotational stiffness is taken as 80% of K3.

The yield surface approach that is implemented in the program LEGLOAD implicitly checks the foundation by reducing the rotational soil stiffness until the combined vertical, horizontal and moment load falls within the defined yield surface.

2.6. LEG LENGTH RESERVE AND HULL ELEVATION CHECKS

For airgap calculations the clearance of the 50-yr wave with additional margin must be checked. The minimum airgap requirement, relative to LAT, is calculated below: • Tidal amplitude and surge 2.0 m • Wave elevation 16.1 m • Margin 1.5 m • Minimum airgap to LAT 19.6 m

The specified airgap of 25 m exceeds the minimum requirements for this location.

The reserve leg length is determined as follows: • Available total leg length 175.3 m • Leg penetration 1.4 m • Waterdepth (LAT) 104.7 m • Airgap to LAT 25.0 m • Top of jack-house above base of hull 25.0 m

Reserve leg length is 19.2 m.

The minimum required leg length reserve is 1.5 m.

2.7. EXTERNAL LOADS

External loads are determined using: • Deterministic approach • SDOF approach for DAF

2.7.1. WIND AREA

The effective wind area of the hull is 2650 m2, at a level of 18.0 m above base of hull based on wind tunnel tests. This wind area is used for all

directions. A representative Cd is used for the leg CD related to wind loads.

2.7.2. HYDRODYNAMIC LEG PROPERTIES

The CD and CM of the legs are determined in accordance with section 4.6 [ref 1] using the ‘equivalent leg model’. The leg is divided in a smooth part above MSL + 2 m, and a rough part below. For the rough part a marine growth thickness of 12.5 mm is added.

The reference values for tubular are: CD CM

smooth 0.65 2.0

rough 1.0 1.8

The total leg coefficients are related to the leg reference diameter (= 16 m). The effect of raw water risers, jet pipes, etc. is taken into account.

2.7.3. Wave theory, kinematics reduction factor and current blockage factor

Stokes-5 wave theory is considered to be appropriate, see figure 2.2.

In order to obtain realistic wave forces in combination with a Stokes 5th order regular wave analysis, a kinematic reduction factor of 0.86 is applied to the wave height in line with instruction from the Benchmark Panel.

A current blockage factor of 0.92 is used.

2.8. PINNED CASE

The maximum wave/current overturning moment is selected for the assessment.

2.8.1. Inertia loading (pinned case)

The damping used is total 5% of critical, thought to be comprised of: • Structural 2% • Hydrodynamic 2% • Foundation 1% • Total 5%

Natural Periods and DAF's: • Hull weight 17118 t (max) • TN 9.0 s (for all directions sway/surge) • Tw 15.8 s • Damping 5% • DAFSDOF 1.47

Reference elevation for OTM = wrt support point at 0.4 m below mud line.

See figure 2.3 for wave heading definition.

2.8.3. Global response analysis

For the global response calculations the MSC jack-up assessment program LEGLOAD is used. The program applies a quasi-static design wave approach together with a non-linear (large displacements) FE-model. The dynamic behaviour is taken into account by a Single Degree Of Freedom (SDOF) analogy.

LEGLOAD output for relevant cases is included in appendix B.

2.8.4. Overturning stability

The overturning stability unity check is 0.97. For maximum (100% variable load) weight, the utilization reduces to 0.94.

2.8.5. Leg strength

The highest chord strength unity check found is UC = 1.09.

2.8.6. Fixation system capacity

The fixation system has a characteristic resistance of 145 MN, giving a design resistance of 123 MN. The fixation system unity check is 0.90.

2.8.7. Foundation check

Step 1 pre-load check is used as a first level bearing check for the NS sand – pinned case under the following restrictions: • Analyses model is based on a pinned footing support response model • The ratio of Fh over Fv must fall within the range applicable to partial

contact conditions, Qh < 0.1 VL0

The first is true, the second depends on the soil reaction. The soil reaction for the leeward leg is Fh of 8.94 which is well within 0.1 VL0. Therefore the step 1 pre-load is found applicable. However, for comparison a step 2a VH bearing check was performed (for pinned condition) as well.

The resulting pre-load unity check is: • UC = 140 / (0.90 x 152.9) = 1.02

Taking into consideration that only 1 cm additional penetration will lead to a satisfactory unity check, the check is assessed acceptable as per SNAME guidelines. A step 3 analysis is therefore not required.

Step 2a is based on the formula for vertical-horizontal capacity envelope as per section 6.3.3.1, whereby the pre-loading capacity of the unit at the soil of VL,0 = 152.9 MN is found with the associated effective friction angle of 29 deg. Side resistance is considered (Rh = 0.12 MN). The required resistance factor for partial contact is φVH = 0.90.

The vector of the loads with respect to the origin of the loads in still water level, being Vswl = 79 MN for leeward legs, are constructed. The capacity vector is found with respect to the still water load in the same direction as

Page 12: ISO 19905-1 BENCHMARK STUDY - ASSESSMENT IN … · 3100 AR Schiedam, the Netherlands Telephone +31 - (0)10 - 2320 800 Fax +31 - (0)10 - 2320 801 E-mail MSC@GustoMSC.com Website for

the load vector. This capacity vector is factored by φVH. The utilization is found as: UC = vector of loads wrt Vswl / factored capacity vector wrt Vswl

Un-factored yield surface, load and capacity vectors and results are shown in figure 2.4.

Sliding of the windward leg is found to exceed 1.0 based on the step 1b check. Step 2b approach is applied as per below.

2.9. FIXITY CASE

The maximum wave/current overturning moment is selected for the assessment.

2.9.1. Inertia loading (fixity case)

• Hull weight 17118 t (max) • TN 7.1 s (for all directions sway/surge) • Tw 15.8 s • Damping 5% • DAFSDOF 1.25

2.9.2. ACTION SUMMARY fixity case

The factored actions used in/resulting from the Extreme Storm analysis are listed below:

heading [deg] [deg] 180 210 240

See figure 2.3 for wave heading definition.

2.9.3. Global response analysis

For the global response calculations the MSC jack-up assessment program LEGLOAD is used. The program applies a quasi-static design wave approach together with a non-linear (large displacements) FE-model. The dynamic behaviour is taken into account by a Single Degree Of Freedom (SDOF) analogy.

LEGLOAD output for relevant cases is included in appendix C.

2.9.4. Overturning stability

The resulting overturning stability unity check is 0.79.

2.9.5. Leg strength

The leg strength unity check at lower guide level is 0.92.

2.9.6. Fixation system capacity

The fixation system unity check is 0.76.

2.9.7. Foundation check

The same conditions have been used as for the NS sand – pinned case, except that fixity was applied in the response model. The soil reactions thus differ from the pinned case.

In addition, the step 1 pre-load check is not applicable as the response model was not based on pinned supported condition. For fixity calculations step 2b applies. The leg reaction vector complies with the VHM yield surface. For foundation capacity checking refers further to step 2a. Results are shown in figure 2.5.

Step 2a was applied in the same way as for the previous case. Utilisations found are: • Foundation capacity UC = 1.05 • Sliding UC = 0.98

Step 2a was thus applied in the same way as for the previous case. Since the maximum utilization exceeds 1.0 a step 3 further assessment is adopted here (but not reported further) to verify that with additional

penetration of only a few centimetres the situation is found acceptable. Sliding is found to be acceptable (UC = 0.98).

2.10. CONCLUSION

The results for assessment for the typical North Sea sand site conditions in accordance with the SNAME Recommended Practice rev 3 [ref 1], as described in the previous sections, results in the utilizations as summarized below:

criteria sand - pinned case sand - fixity case

overturning stability 0.97 0.79

The maximum elevated weight is 17118 t composed of light elevated weight and variable load. The minimum elevated weight is taken as lightweight plus 50% of the maximum variable load. For both maximum and minimum elevated weight the eccentricities relative to the center of legs are: • Longitudinal -2.20 m to +0.45 m (- is aft, + is forward) • Transverse 0.35 m to either side

3.3.2. LEGS

• Number of legs 3 • Longitudinal leg distance 53.7 m • Transverse leg distance 62.0 m • Type of leg triangular lattice • Bracing type X • Leg length 175.3 m • Leg face width 16 m • Spudcan diameter (equivalent) 17.84 m • Spudcan area 250 m2

The leg-to-hull connection is provided by active fixation systems on all chords.

3.3.3. Pre-load conditions

The applied pre-load is 152.9 MN at spudcan level.

3.4. LEG PENETRATION ESTIMATE

The method of section 6.2.2 and commentaries is applied which results in approx 40-44 m penetration of the maximum contact area, see figure 3.1. This is in close agreement with the ISO result. Backflow and infill is expected to occur resulting in an estimated F’0A – γ’V = 36.7 MN.

Cavity remaining after pre-loading may be up to 8 m equivalent to 8 MN soil weight. The effect of in-fill is added to the (net) soil reactions resulting from the storm.

3.5. FOUNDATION STIFFNESS FOR (DEEP PENETRATION) FIXITY CASE

The effect of foundation fixity is included in the (fixity case) analysis, using a yield surface approach according to section 6.3.4. Upon request from the Benchmarking Panel [ref 4], the SNAME rev 3 (shallow) clay fixity capacities have been replaced by the capacities as indicated in the text received, see appendix D, whereby: • VLo = pre-load capacity 152.9 MN • HLo = cuoA + (cuo + cu1) As 19.2 MN • MLo = (0.1 + 0.05a(1+b/2)) VLo B 428 MNm

The capacities are based on net capacities for the deep penetration case with a = 0.99, b = 0.303, As = 26.76 m2, A = 250 m2, cu0 = 63.7 kPa, cu1 = 60 kPa and B = 17.84 m.

The shear modulus is selected using the Commentaries. The shear modulus is limited to G/su < 600 as per recommendation in the Commentaries. Embedment factors are included (approx 2.2) for a Poisson’s ratio of 0.5. This results in the following initial stiffnesses: • G 34 MN/m2 • K1 4370 MN/m • K2 2910 MN/m • K3 4850 MNm/deg

For the dynamic analysis (natural period calculation) the rotational stiffness is taken as 80% of K3.

The yield surface approach that is implemented in the program LEGLOAD implicitly checks the foundation by reducing the rotational soil stiffness until the combined vertical, horizontal and moment load falls within the defined yield surface. The stiffness reduction factor is as per section 6.3.4.3, so different from the ISO definition. However, all failure ratios are (close to) 1.0 which means that the yield capacities determine the final remaining fixity.

3.6. LEG LENGTH RESERVE AND HULL ELEVATION CHECKS

For airgap calculations the clearance of the 50-yr wave with additional margin must be checked. The minimum airgap requirement, relative to LAT, is calculated below: • Tidal amplitude and surge 2.5 m • Wave elevation 12.7 m • Margin 1.5 m • Minimum airgap to LAT 16.7 m

The specified airgap of 20 m exceeds the minimum requirements for this location.

The reserve leg length is determined as follows: • Available total leg length 175.3 m • Leg penetration 45.6 m • Waterdepth (LAT) 80.0 m • Airgap to LAT 20.0 m • Top of jack-house above base of hull 25.0 m

Reserve leg length is 4.7 m.

The minimum required leg length reserve is 1.5 m.

3.7. EXTERNAL LOADS

External loads are determined using: • Deterministic approach • SDOF approach for DAF

3.7.1. WIND AREA

The effective wind area of the hull is 2650 m2, at a level of 18.0 m above base of hull based on wind tunnel tests. This wind area is used for all

directions. A representative Cd is used for the leg CD related to wind loads.

3.7.2. HYDRODYNAMIC LEG PROPERTIES

The CD and CM of the legs are determined in accordance with section 4.6 [ref 1] using the ‘equivalent leg model’. The leg is divided in a smooth part above MSL + 2 m, and a rough part below. For the rough part a marine growth thickness of 12.5 mm is added.

The reference values for tubular are: CD CM

smooth 0.65 2.0

rough 1.0 1.8

The total leg coefficients are related to the leg reference diameter (= 16 m). The effect of raw water risers, jet pipes, etc. is taken into account.

3.7.3. Wave theory, kinematics reduction factor and current blockage factor

Stokes-5 wave theory is considered to be appropriate.

In order to obtain realistic wave forces in combination with a Stokes 5th order regular wave analysis, a kinematic reduction factor of 0.86 is applied to the wave height in line with instruction from the Benchmark Panel.

A current blockage factor of 0.92 is used.

3.8. RESULTS FOR DEEP PENETRATION CASE

The maximum wave/current overturning moment is selected for the assessment.

3.8.1. Inertia loading

• Hull weight 17118 t (max) • TN 6.0 s (for all directions sway/surge) • Tw 16.0 s (apparent, see above) • Damping 5% (additional damping of deep penetration in clay

neglected) • DAFSDOF 1.16

3.8.3. Global response analysis

For the global response calculations the MSC jack-up assessment program LEGLOAD is used. The program applies a quasi-static design wave approach together with a non-linear (large displacements) FE-model. The dynamic behaviour is taken into account by a Single Degree Of Freedom (SDOF) analogy.

LEGLOAD output for relevant cases is included in appendix E.

3.8.4. Overturning stability

The resulting overturning stability unity check is 0.61.

3.8.5. Leg strength

The leg strength unity check at lower guide level is 0.70.

3.8.6. Fixation system capacity

The fixation system unity check is 0.59.

3.8.7. Foundation check

The step 1 pre-load check is not applicable as the response model was not based on pinned supported condition. For fixity calculations step 2b applies which for foundation capacity checking refers further to step 2a. Step 2a was thus applied in a similar same way as for the sand cases.

Step 2a is based on the formula for vertical-horizontal capacity envelope of section 6.3.3.2 and section 6.2.2 for penetration in clay. The ultimate vertical bearing capacity of clay is equal to pre-load taking into account the effect of backflow and soil replaced by the spudcan: • VL0 = Fv – F0’ A + γ’V Where: Fv = (cu0Ncscdc + p0’) A for zero horizontal loading F0’ A - γ’V = 36.7 MN

This results in Fv = 189 MN, taken as the ultimate capacity of at the soil comprising VL,0 = 152.9 MN and F0’ A + γ’V = 36.7 MN. Full contact is achieved. In line with section 6.3.3.2 the associated horizontal capacity at a certain Fv includes side resistance: • FH = FH + (su0 + su1) x As

The required resistance factor for full contact is φVH = 0.85.

The vector of the loads with respect to the origin of the loads in still water level, being Vswl = 82 MN which includes the additional weight of 8 MN infill after pre-loading, are constructed. The capacity vector is found with respect to the still water load in the same direction as the load vector. This capacity vector is factored by φVH. The utilization is found as

UC = vector of loads wrt. Vswl/ factored capacity vector wrt Vswl.

Un-factored yield surface, load and capacity vectors and results are presented in figure 3.2. Utilisations found are: • Foundation capacity UC = 0.83 • Sliding UC = 0.67

For the purpose of the present Benchmark study, the verification does not progress beyond this level of checks which could be a step 3 procedure.

A general description of the basic method is given.

The overall analysis is performed using the in-house developed MSC program LEGLOAD, based on a quasi-static and geometrically non-linear method. The P ∆ effect has been taken into account in the calculations. The effect of dynamics will be assessed in terms of structural properties (first natural period) and environmental properties (wave period and amplitude of cyclic loading).

For a given design wave the program calculates the instant that results in the maximum overturning moment. For this wave position, detailed wave, current and wind forces are calculated. With these forces the program determines the overall response (deflections and loads) taking into account geometric non-linear behaviour of the structure. To provide some background, the following items are briefly discussed.

Geometric input

The following items are required for the geometric input: • Distance between the legs • The elevation of the platform • The penetration of the leg into the seabed • The location of the seabed support point • The height of the jacking structure • The elevation of the lower guide

Weight input

The following items are required for the weight input: • The elevated weight and the horizontal position of the center of gravity • The weight and buoyancy of the legs; the submerged weight of the leg

footing is also specified

Structural input

The effective leg stiffness is calculated taking into account the actual leg scantlings of the chords (for bending stiffness) and bracings (to take into account shear deformation). The stiffness of the leg-to-hull interface is represented by a rotational linear spring and depends on the actual configuration of the leg-to-hull interface.

The hull stiffness is modelled with beam elements between the three legs. These beams have representative stiffnesses.

Foundation

Either pinned support footing or fixity in accordance with the method described in the SNAME-RP or ISO is taken into account. The stiffness and capacities are based on geotechnical calculations and guidance in the relevant document.

Hydrodynamic input

The drag and inertia coefficients CD and CM are used as generalized applicable to the legs as single sticks. The coefficients are calculated on the basis of all elements of the leg, each with their own diameter and CD/ CM coefficients. This also includes a provision for non-structural elements such as jetting lines and raw water pipes.

Environmental input

The environmental input is taken directly from the specified design conditions specified as 50 year return period conditions. Wave/current loading and wind loading on the legs are calculated by the program. The wind area of the hull is calculated separately.

Wave theory

The use of a deterministic, regular wave analysis method requires an appropriate wave theory, based on waterdepth, wave height and period.

Current

The surface, mid-depth and bottom current are specified. Current velocities at all depths are based on linear interpolation.

Wind

The wind load is calculated for three main parts: • The hull • The legs below the hull base • The legs above the top of the jacking structures

The wind load on the hull is based on an effective wind area and wind arm above the base. LEGLOAD will lift the hull to its airgap accounting for the specified wind profile.

Dynamics

The natural period of the unit is determined with the program. Based on a SDOF analogy, the DAF is calculated and equivalent inertia loading is determined.
