Hazards & Constraints Analysis
Hazards & Constraints Analysis
Comprehensive assessment of natural and anthropogenic hazards and constraints to ensure that project risks are minimised and schedules maintained
Hazards (dynamic features / processes)
Anthropogenic:
-
Vessel anchoring
-
Fishing/trawling activity
-
UXO
-
Construction Activities
Natural:
-
Mobile bedforms
-
Scour
-
Slope instability
-
Gravity flows
-
Shallow Gas
-
Faulting


Geo-4D has extensive experience in identifying and characterising a variety of offshore hazards and constraints, throughout the life-cycle of a project.
-
Concept - Early stage analysis of regional hazards and constraints that influence site selection, feasibility, corridor selection, concept design and site investigation scopes of work.
-
Project Execution - Detailed analysis of hazards and constraints that influence layout, routing, engineering, installation equipment and construction methodologies.
-
Operation - Detailed monitoring of ongoing dynamic hazards that may affect the integrity of an asset throughout its life-cycle.
Constraints (static features)
Anthropogenic:
-
Infrastructure
-
Wreaks
-
Seafloor debris
-
UXO
-
Protected sites
Natural:
-
Shallow bedrock
-
Boulders
-
Steep slopes
-
Shallow Gas
-
