CD-adapco announced today it is hosting an Oil & Gas industry webinar on September 3, 2015, titled, "Using CFD to Support the Design and Operation of Offshore Vessels." This webinar will highlight the application of CFD to evaluate various vessel dynamics, and feature a live demonstration of simulation software for the installation of subsea equipment.
Marine engineers involved in the design and operation of offshore vessels will find significant value in this CD-adapco webinar. Having an accurate understanding of vessel behavior is vital from an economic and safety point of view.
Presenters Harald Ottens of Heerema Marine Contractors, Alex Read of CD-adapco and Alex Graham of CD-adapco will highlight the application of CFD to evaluate current and wind loads on a semi-submersible crane vessel (SSCV); thruster efficiency; roll damping and wave-induced motions; moon pool behavior; and lowering dynamics (added mass and damping).
In addition, this CD-adapco online event will also feature a live demonstration of simulation software for the installation of subsea equipment.
Registration for the webinar can be found on the company website, http://www.cd-adapco.com.
CD-adapco is dedicated to finding and developing solutions for engineers in the oil and gas industry. In addition to this upcoming event, previously recorded oil and gas industry webinars "CFD Simulation for Flow Assurance & Subsea Engineering" and "Analysis-Led Design in Subsea Engineering" are indicative of the company's experience in and commitment to this sector.
