RHINO SYSTEMS LTD OFFSHORE ESCAPE TUNNELS
Applications:
• Offshore wall Panels• Cross – deck walls on
FPSO’s and FLNG• Escape tunnels• A, H & J rated
Design basis, standards and verification:
• ISO 19903• Fabig Technical Note 5 (stainless
steel blastwalls) applies also for carbon steel (referenced in ISO 19903)
• Eurocode 3• SDOF and code check and added
dynamic explicit NLFEA (LSDYNA or ABAQUS)
• Design verification by classification society LR, DnV, ABS
Buckling modes with trapezoidal profile that are avoided or postponed with arch profile:
Overall bending
Web
Out of plane buckling and crushing collapse
Trough
Harsh environment FPSO
Cross Section
Fixed platform tunnel support and fire-expansion joint system
Design Standards and verificationFeatures
• FABIG technical Notes 4, 5 , 6 & 13• Eurocode 3• SDOF and code check and added
dynamic explicit NLFEA (LSDYNA or ABAQUS)
• Design verification by classification society LR, DnV, ABS
• Double carcass construction with ceramic fibre insulation between the two. • Light weight duplex stainless steel outer carcass has with arch profile walls and stiffened
plate roof and bottom.• RHS ring frames at supports.• Inner truss for carcass support when H/J rated fire softens outer carcass.• Strong support bearing system to cater for uneven blast and fire loads.• Expansion joints every 20-35m• Strong through draft of exhaust air from accommodation keeps interior cool.

With arch profile:– compression panel width is halved– web has lower Sw / t ratio– out of plane pressure resistance
increased
Chevron stiffner moves neutral axis up, reducing compressed width of web and stiffening it

200m long Escape Tunnel. 2–3 bar resistance on inboard side. Intermediate air lock entrances
Increasing capacity for ductility ratio Ym/Yel from 1 to 3 substantially reduces required wall quasistatic strength, weight and support reactions

Zone of interest for load bearing bulkhead walls 500-700C, generally needs PFP
Zone of interest for non-load bearing corrugated blastwalls 800-1100C, hence PFP generally not required
Features
• Used for blast 0.5 to 4 bar (7 to 60psi), spans up to 14m (45ft)• Fire resistant• Carbon steel S355 or duplex stainless steel • Widely used offshore UK, Norway, Azerbaijan, SE Asia and Australia• Ductile bending capacity to ductility ratio 3 or more thinner, lighter
weight wall allows economic use of duplex stainless steel• Bi-directional option offered• Compliant supports with controlled moment carry over to deck
simplifies deck design • Corrugated blastwalls typically have half the depth of bulkhead walls
(space saving) and are lighter
