Effect of Mooring Line Damage on the Responses of Truss Spar Platforms

The exploration of hydrocarbon reservoirs in ultra deep water requires the use of innovative floating platform configurations. Due to the global climate change, unexpected ocean environments lead to damages on many offshore platforms. This paper addresses the effect of mooring line damages due to th...
