'Umbilicals: The Future' was the title of a Joint Industry
Programme that aimed to improve umbilical technology to meet
new and more demanding subsea applications. The R&D programme
followed on from an OSO study, which found that the industry
was not well supported by appropriate international standards
or guidelines. The results of the two-year project- sponsored
by Amerada Hess, BP, Brasoil, British Gas, Elf, OSO, Shell, Statoil,
and Texaco- are comprehensively covered in these proceedings.
