STARIS Riser Dynamics Simulation

  Home

Analyse the Dynamics of Riser Systems for Drilling, Production, Completion, Workover, Export and Offshore Pipelines.

Starmark Offshore's STARIS Riser Dynamics Analysis and Simulation Software:
  • Lateral riser dynamics.
  • Axial riser dynamics.
  • Wave-Induced Vibrations (WIV).
  • Vortex-Induced Vibrations (VIV).
  • Nonlinear soil-pipe interaction.
  • Mud-column oscillations.
  • Multiple simulation cases.
  • Operating envelopes such as Tension-Offset Envelopes.
  • Nonlinear Time-Domain Method solution.
  • Finite-Element Method (FEM) formulation.
  • Keyword-driven input data language format.
  • Batch input, execution, and processing.
  • Post-processing to generate Tension-Offset Envelope plots.
  • Written in C++ Object-Oriented Programming.
  • Versions available for Linux and Mac OS X.
  • Versions available for Linux Beowulf-type Clusters and Grid Computing.
  • Currently being adapted to offshore operations use on floating drilling platforms.
  • Custom versions, modifications, and output reports available.
