ABSTRACT
The development of deep-water oil and gas reserves constantly forces the challenge to reduce cost of components and activities. A drilling riser is a conduit that provides temporary extension of a subsea oil well to a surface drilling facility. With an increase in drilling operations in harsh environments, drilling riser requirements and limits have become more onerous due to uncertainties involved in response prediction and prolonged drilling programs. A high level of understanding is required of the response of the system to various conditions and design issues that govern the system. This project presents an overview of engineering challenges faced in designing drilling riser system for drill ship of water depths greater than 10,000ft. Also, static and dynamic analysis of drilling riser system have been carried out for the development of drilling riser joints. Keywords: marine drilling riser, offshore installation, offshore drilling.
