If you are involved in the design or operation of offshore
vessels or platforms, we are holding an educational seminar
you shouldn't miss. This seminar will feature presentations
from leading companies in the marine and offshore industry,
as well as experts from CD-adapco.

| Description: |
Attend this workshop to learn more about the use
of simulation to understand, improve or mitigate:
- Vortex Induced Motion (VIM)
- Slam loads, air gap and green water
- Hull resistance
- Scale-up from model to full scale
- Hull drag and topside wind loads
- Ringing of Tension Leg Platforms (TLPs) and
Gravity Based Structures (GBSs)
- Global performance
- Riser Vortex Induced Vibration (VIV)
- Sloshing loads
Offshore Floating Platforms are required to
survive extreme environments like large waves and hurricane
force winds over several decades of operation. Historically,
designers have relied on a combination of Potential Flow
codes, physical tests and experience. While each of these
brings value to the design process, gaps and uncertainties
remain. Advances in software and hardware technology, as
well as success in validating CFD methods, mean companies
routinely applying CFD or the Virtual Wave Basin in projects
enable them to deliver a better product with reduced risks
and uncertainties.
Seminar Overview
This seminar will feature presentations from
leading companies in the marine and offshore industry, as
well as experts from CD-adapco. Talks will include:
- Houston Offshore Engineering - VIM analysis of
Deep Draft Column Stabilized Floaters
- Technip - Virtual Wave Basin in the Design of
Offshore Floaters
- CD-adapco - Hull Form Optimization with STAR-
CCM+ and HEEDS
If you’re interested in discovering more about
what’s involved in performing such analyses, the seminar
will feature both live demonstrations of STAR-CCM+ and an
opportunity to try it yourself with a hands-on session.
This event is free, but registration is necessary.
