Objective
The objective of the activity was to obtain more information concerning the implementation of the dewatering system, and the analyses and model tests underpinning the need to reinstate dewatering as a constructional measure.
We also wished to perform spot checks of non-conformity handling, the analysis base and Shell's quality assurance of analyses, tests and acceptability assessments of non-conformities.
Result
Non-conformities were identified in connection with:
- Verifications
- Fatigue analyses
- Non-conformity handling
In addition, an improvement point was identified in connection with wave-load calculations.
