Abstract

Abstract: A method is detailed for fatigue analysis of vortex-induced vibration (VIV) in deep-water drilling riser-wellhead systems based on the Weibull distribution. According to the long-term statistical distribution of marine environmental conditions, the load cases of detailed VIV fatigue analysis are divided by using the Weibull distribution theory of random variables, and current profiles with different probabilities of exceedance are obtained. Further, VIV fatigue damage corresponding to each current profile is calculated by using the VIV fatigue analysis program SHEAR7, and the total fatigue damage of the riser system is estimated according to the occurrence probability. A case study is then conducted for a specific application of the proposed method by combining the design of riser system and the parameters of sea conditions in an oil well in South China Sea. The results show that VIV-induced fatigue lives calculated from the three single conventional current profiles are only 1.95, 0.039, and 0.012 years, respectively, whereas that obtained by detailed fatigue analysis based on the Weibull distribution is approximately 40 years. Compared with the conventional method, the proposed method is more suitable for predicting VIV-induced fatigue damage in riser-wellhead system as it complies more with the real marine environmental conditions and avoids over-conservative riser pre-drilling design. The number of load cases recommended for detailed fatigue analysis of VIV is 20-28.

摘要： 提出基于威布尔分布的隔水管-井口系统涡激疲劳详细分析方法，根据海洋环境条件的长期统计分布特征，采用随机变量的威布尔分布理论划分涡激疲劳详细分析的工况，得到具有不同超越概率的流剖面。在此基础上，应用涡激振动疲劳分析程序SHEAR7计算各个流剖面对应的涡激疲劳损伤，按照其发生概率折算得出隔水管系统总的疲劳损伤。算例结合南海某油井隔水管系统设计和具体海况参数，给出了上述方法的具体应用。研究表明，采用常规三种单一流剖面计算得到的涡激疲劳寿命分别为1.95年、0.039年和0.012年，而采用基于威布尔分布的涡激疲劳详细分析得到的疲劳寿命约为40年。两种方法相比，由于后者更符合实际的海洋环境条件，预测隔水管-井口涡激疲劳损伤更为合理，从而可以避免过于保守的隔水管钻前设计。推荐涡激疲劳详细分析工况数量为20~28个。
