REASSESSMENT OF PLATFORMS IN COOK INLET, ALASKA

This paper presents the results of an audit of condition surveys and reassessment studies of several aging high-consequence platforms located in Cook Inlet, Alaska. The purpose of the study was to demonstrate that these platforms continue to be structurally safe and have a low risk potential for environmental damage. The effort included: 1) the preparation of a Cook Inlet platform database; 2) the selection of five platforms for more detailed review; 3) audits of condition surveys,; and 4) audits of structural assessments. All of the selected platforms were found fit-for-purpose.
