CAPABILITY STATEMENT I INTRODUCTION
KW was founded in 1999 as a high-technology engineering
consultancy solving problems associated with subsea pipelines.
Over the years we have grown our capability and services across
the broader subsea sector providing design engineering for all
phases of SURF projects, whilst also enhancing our international
reputation as a leading pipeline consultant.
We engage in projects that are situated in difficult environments, in deep
waters, challenging seabed terrains and soils as well as high pressure, high
temperature (HPHT) reservoirs and corrossive fluids. We strive to extend
the traditional design approaches, enabling marginal projects, but always
with safety as a priority and using solutions that are fit and optimised for
installation and construction.
In 2012 KW became part of the Petrofac Group, one of the major oil field
service companies in the world. With a driver for KW to be the focal point
of all subsea and pipeline engineering, we have consolidated Petrofac’s UK
pipelines group as well as that in Malaysia (formerly RNZ-Pegasus). KW
Subsea group continues to operate as an independent company with the
vision of being the ‘engineer of choice for global subsea developments’.
We are also able to integrate our services, when required, with the larger
engineering resource and skills base of Petrofac to jointly undertake larger
and more complex oil and gas developments. This may involve other
offshore facilities such as jackets, topsides, FPSOs as well as onshore
plants. We believe this is a unique offering that draws upon the wider
Petrofac experience and feedback from EPC projects.

Design of Subsea Structures
Key assetsThe continuing trend towards subsea developments often in deepwater places ever greater emphasis on the need for cost-effective and practical subsea structures. These structures must support and protect critical piping and equipment for the life of the field, whilst providing easy diver/ROV access for critical intervention tasks. Reliable performance of these assets is critical to the success of a development, requiring great care and attention to detail in design.
Our comprehensive design service covers conceptual, FEED, preliminary and detailed engineering of subsea structures, supported by our team of experienced subsea engineers. We work closely with client, installation contractor and fabricator throughout the project to ensure suitability of a fit for purpose final design and compressed schedule.
Structure typesOur design team has experience of all types of subsea structures in deep and shallow water, including manifolds, templates, SSIV protection, PLEM, subsea distribution assemblies, wellhead protection, drill centres, dynamic riser bases, tether clump weights, subsea PLR modules, PLET and in-line wye/tee assemblies.
LayoutUse of AutoDesk Design Suite 2014, including AutoCAD, Inventor and 3D Studio Max, to define layout of piping, valves, actuators, flanges, tie-ins and equipment. Size and weight optimised to suit installation vessel and fabrication facility. Designs tailored to suit diver or ROV IRM philosophies (tie-in, valve operation, equipment installation/retrieval).
Structural analysesState of the art structural design software is used to develop efficient structure designs in accordance with either limit state or permissible stress codes. Global analysis may cover or involve load-out, transportation, marine lifting, installation and in-place analysis including hydrodynamic and earthquake loading. External loads from dropped object impacts, trawl snag and pipeline tie-ins can be addressed.
Piping assemblies are designed in conjunction with adjoining spools and foundations, and can be combined in the global structural analysis to capture critical interaction effects. We have experience in the design of structures, piping, fitting analysis and design to the range of commonly applied codes and standards.

Survey and Routeing
Critical up-front taskOptimal route selection at the outset of an offshore pipeline project has the potential to minimise subsequent design challenges and dramatically reduce construction costs. The critical importance of routeing decisions is recognised in our approach, which combines extensive experience with rapid and effective analysis tools to screen candidate routes.
Whilst these specialist skills are often generally available to office-based desk studies and detailed engineering, we are able to perform rapid analysis onboard offshore survey vessel In many cases we are able to avoid geohazards, eliminate spanning, and minimise installation difficulties even before completion of the survey.
Where routeing challenges cannot be resolved offshore, we ensure that the survey data acquired is adequate for rigorous assessment during FEED and detailed design.
Project highlights
Gulf of Aqaba Crossing: Egypt, 2003The 36" pipeline passes from Taba in Egypt to Aqaba in Jordan, crossing the 860m deep Gulf of Aqaba: a depth record for this size of pipeline. Both sides of the gulf are extremely steep, with numerous gullies and unstable slopes, and delicate corals at the shore approaches. Any pre- or post-lay intervention would have been very costly, with no scope for trenching or rock cover. Identifying a suitable route was particularly challenging, requiring sophisticated numerical analysis to minimise span lengths and avoid landslide run-out zones. KW supported the owner, EGC, at every stage of the project, with routeing specialists present on all offshore surveys. The final selected route eliminated all intervention requirements, in spite of extremely challenging seabed terrain.
Agiba Project: Gulf of Suez, 2005Offshore and Onshore Support for pipeline routed in shallow waters with extensive reefs and rocky areas off the east coast of Egypt. Pipeline route optimised to avoid excessive spanning, relax installation tolerances, and avoid severe cross slopes to ensure lateral stability.
North Idku Project: Offshore Egypt, 2006Pipeline route optimised to avoid reef and pass through flat seabed to improve trenching conditions. Pipeline route length minimized. Offshore support was provided to acquire firsthand data and perform real time route selection. Survey operations were adjusted in the field to suit selected route.

Upheaval Buckling and Out-of-Straightness AnalysisOut-of-straightness (OOS) analysis is one of KW’s main strengths that enables the company to remain at the leading edge of upheaval buckling (UHB) analysis.
Unique analysis packageKW has developed an accurate and consistent OOS analysis methodology, which is based on the use of the SAGE Profile FE package combined with the Download Monitoring System (DMS) to calculate the download requirement to prevent upheaval buckling in pipelines.
The KW OOS analysis method is combined with a reliability-based approach in order to capture the uncertainty in design input parameters. ABAQUS non-linear FEA is used to calibrate the OOS analysis models for HPHT and PIP applications.
The DMS analysis tool, pioneered and developed by KW staff, has been used on almost all the pipelines installed in the North Sea since 1999. The analysis method has been subject to DnV, Lloyds and Bureau Veritas scrutiny and verification on several projects.
In the past, assessment of the amount of rock cover has incorporated a large degree of conservatism, resulting in excessive cost to the installation contractor. Thus, KW’s main OOS analysis objectives are:• Toprovideanadequatelevelofsafetyintheoperating
pipeline to ensure that upheaval buckling will not occur during the operating life of the pipeline.
• Tominimisethevolumeofrockrequiredtoeliminateupheaval buckling, commensurate with the requirements for adequate safety.

KW is a pioneer in this field and continues to lead the way
KW assuranceA dedicated, proactive, and responsive engineering team with extensive experience of advanced structural mechanics and pipeline engineering can be assigned to respond to the project’s demands.
KW’s ability to perform the OOS analysis quickly and thoroughly can be demonstrated by reference to our track record in this field over the past years. Rock dump schedules can be provided as swiftly as within 24 hours, if required, from the receipt of raw OOS survey data.

Lateral Buckling and Pipeline Walking
Guaranteeing pipeline integrity at minimal cost
A recent requirement in pipeline engineeringThe move to deep water and higher temperatures and pressures in recent years has introduced lateral buckling and walking as new problems in the pipeline design process. Where practical and economic considerations prevent burial of pipelines, the potential to ‘snake’ and ‘walk’ is often unavoidable. Advanced design and analysis methods, often coupled with special construction measures, are then needed to ensure a safe and reliable system containing ‘engineered’ lateral buckles.
KW has been at the forefront of developments in this specialist field, with a substantial track record of lateral buckling and walking studies for leading international contractors and operators worldwide. The mitigation measures required to control walking and lateral buckling can be very costly.
KW has wide experience in the design of fully integrated solutions, designed to guarantee pipeline integrity for minimum overall cost.
Specialist servicesKW can deploy a wide range of analysis tools and techniques, suitable for preliminary concept studies, tender design/validation, FEED and detailed design. Typical tasks include:• Reviewofsoilparametersandestimateofpipe/soil
interaction forces. Specification of additional in-situ and laboratory soil tests.
• Rapidscreeningassessmentusinganalyticalmethods(Hobbs, Taylor and Gan).
• Advancednon-linearFEAofbuckleinitiationandpost-buckling response, including non-linear pipe/soil interaction modelling.

High Pressure and High Temperature SystemsNew design challenges in marginal fieldsThe feasibility of constructing pipelines to transport high temperature and pressure contents has become central to the development of marginal fields. Pipeline systems with fluid temperatures of 160°C or more have been, and are currently, being designed.
At temperatures above about 120°C several factors become pertinent which are not significant for pipelines transporting lower temperature contents. These factors include:• Theeffectofelevatedtemperaturesonthemechanical
properties of the pipeline steel, including carbon steel, corrosion resistant alloys (CRA) and CRA lined carbon steel pipe.
• Practicalproblemsencounteredwhendesigningpipelinesystems that can conform to current codes based on limiting stress conditions and the relevance of limit state codes to high temperature pipelines.
• Therequirementtoadoptastrain-baseddesignmethodology. The adjective ‘strain-based’ is used here to describe pipelines where the traditional limit on the equivalent stress in the pipeline is replaced by a limit on the strain experienced by the material.
These factors must be resolved in order to ensure that HPHT pipelines can be operated with suitable levels of safety.

StudiesPipeline lateral buckling and walking analysis, ultimate load assessments, impact analysis, fishing gear interaction analysis, failure investigations, and fitness for purpose assessments to justify use of outwith-code equipment.
Concept, FEED and detailed designAppropriate FE methods are fully integrated into the design of subsea facilities, ensuring accurate performance predictions for pipelines, spools and structures. Pipe/soil interaction, reeling deformations, and post-yield response of HPHT systems are all modelled using advanced non-linear FEA techniques.
Seismic and dynamic responseApplication of dynamic FEA to seismic design. Pipeline span assessments routinely use FE methods to accurately model non-linear effects.
Computational geomechanicsConventional P-Y curves and limit equilibrium methods are supplemented by non-linear FEA as required for foundation design. Analysis of ultimate capacity, stiffness, consolidation, settlement and seismic performance are all routinely performed by our FE team.
Installation engineeringMarine lifting studies, barge modification, deck float-over simulation, static and dynamic pipelay analysis are performed.

CAPABILITY STATEMENT I SERVICES
Research and Development
KW’s success is assured by its ability to provide engineering solutions to projects which are technically challenging and situated in regions that are renowned for being environmentally challenging. These include deep water, highly undulating seabeds, very soft soils and seismically active areas, as well as reservoirs which are high pressure and high temperature.
These factors alone, or in combination, require KW to stretch and often work beyond the limits of existing engineering methods, codes and technologies. In order to achieve this capability we supplement our experience and knowledge with specific research and development projects, both internally and externally. As an example we have a number of internal development projects, examining areas such as assessment methods for induction bends and new methods for assessment of upheaval buckling of rigid pipelines. We are also in the process of developing a JIP aimed at assessing the behaviour of flexible pipelines during operation under varying temperatures and pressures.
Enhancing KW’s experience of technically challenging engineering projects
KW has developed a close relationship with Cambridge University where one of the benefits is access to their high tech laboratory facilities. The following projects are ongoing:
• Uplift Resistance of Buried Pipelines This three year project is investigating some of the
complex issues of pipe/soil interaction behaviour with regard to uplift resistance, such as mobilisation displacement and soil ratcheting.
• Cyclic Behaviour of Monopile Foundations for Offshore Wind Farms
This three year project is aimed at understanding the long-term behaviour of large diameter monopiles subject to axial and cyclic lateral loading. KW is collaborating with Cambridge University, together with Dong Energy and Renewable Energy Systems. The project is funded by EPSRC.
KW has also collaborated with the University of Dundee and co-supervised research focussed on pipe/soil axial friction formulation for granular materials. This entailed carrying out experimental investigations to understand the axial resistance of buried pipelines in sand.
