Abstract
- Jacket‐type offshore structures could be deployed in increasingly deeper waters by optimizing their dynamic characteristics. Decreased wave drag area, platform mass and increased structural stiffness are the key characteristics. Jacket geometries should also be selected so that fabrication, transportation and installation costs could be minimized.
