This book provides detailed analysis methods and design guidelines for fire resistance, a vital consideration for offshore processing and production platforms. Recent advancements in the selection of various geometric structural forms for deep-water oil exploration and production require a detailed understanding of the design of offshore structures under special loads. Focusing on a relatively new aspect of offshore engineering, the book offers essential teaching material, illustrating and explaining the concepts discussed through many tutorials. It creates a basis for designing new courses for students of ocean engineering and naval architecture, civil engineering, and applied mechanics at both undergraduate and graduate levels. As such, its content can be used for self-study or as a text in structured courses and professional development programs.

'It examines the very last developments in technology and subsea systems for oil recovery in such inaccessible environments, and provides an economic assessment of various alternative systems employed in this complex field of operation.' Oil & Gas Australia, February 1987 'Overall, this is a well presented, interesting and useful publication for the professional explorer. The individual chapters are well-written and illustrated and are certain to be relevant to those involved in the continuing search for hydrocarbons. The book is highly recommended to all petroleum explorationists - not only those working in the North Sea - because the information, interpretations and concepts could help you find oil and gas in other hydrocarbon provinces.' Marine and Petroleum Geology, 4 (1987)
