Site investigations on the continental slope and beyond present
a multitude of interesting challenges for the oil and gas industry.
Acknowledging the increase in deepwater surveys, these papers
seek to establish what the challenges are and how to address
them. If you have an interest in the fields of deepwater engineering,
survey systems or geological phenomena, this volume will be of
interest to you.
Sections are:
What Are the Site Investigation Challenges for Deepwater Field
Development/Drilling?; Deepwater Engineering Geological
Phenomena; Site Investigation Data Acquisition—Problems and
Solutions; and Deepwater Site Investigation Case Histories. Also
includes 55 figures and tables.
