29 Jun 008: UTA and UTAMB
Linear static stress analysis of a subsea umbilical termination assembly (UTA) fabrication. Multiple load cases were analysed for the UTA with different lifting and lateral loads applied. As well as the main fabrication, a padeye and lifting lug were also analysed in detail. 2 designs of the UTA were analysed, as well as 4 design iterations of the padeye, and 2 of the lug. In all cases, the final design iteration passed the acceptance criteria provided.
