FOUNDATIONS FOR GRAVITY PLATFORMS IN THE NORTH SEA

FUNDAMENTERING AV GRAVITASJONSPLATTFORMER I NORDSJOEN

Use of concrete production platforms requires a careful study of several civil engineering aspects. The geotechnical engineer has a central position within this work. Review of some of the most important problems related to the foundation of gravity platforms and results of measurements of settlement and pore water pressure underneath the Ekofisk oil storage tank are presented. Summary contains detailed graphs.
