The steel catenary riser (SCR) concept has been recently used in almost every new deepwater field development around the world. SCRs have been vital to deepwater field developments. Their use has given a new dimension to oil exploration and transportation in water depths where other riser concepts could not tolerate the environmental loads or would have become very costly. SCR designs are very sensitive to floating support platform or vessel motion characteristics to which they are typically attached. In addition to pipe stresses, the main design issue for the SCR concept is fatigue related. For critical welds, the offshore industry relies on Shaw Pipeline Services to provide new accuracy and sizing equipment and procedures to meet the new standards that are required to meet the pressure criteria set by deeper water risers. Shaw Pipeline Services in-house team of experienced professionals design and implement new technologies to meet the ever changing needs of the production environments with Shaw Pipeline Services proprietary equipment and processes. Shaw Pipeline Services has exceeded industry expectations and can do difficult, never before attempted, projects that one else in the industry can.
