The Environment and Environmental Load of Offshore Oil Engineering
Abstract
The objective environment of Offshore Oil Engineering differs significantly. It is influenced not only by the climate (similar to the land), but also the severe environmental conditions of the sea, for instance, waves, currents, sea ice, and typhoon, monsoon, etc. These marine environment and environmental loads may cause enormous damages, and even affect the normal operation of offshore oil engineering and the production in offshore oil and gas fields.
