Funded Activity Summary

Design of Offshore Foundations with Large Penetration into Multilayered Soils. The outcomes of this research will allow safer and more efficient extraction of oil and gas in Australian waters. Offshore oil and gas development is a key Australian industry, annually contributing over A$21 billion to the economy, and underpinning much of our prosperity. The new numerical models and design guidelines will allow rigs and platforms to operate more safely and efficiently in our challenging seabed conditions, contributing to the future competitiveness of our oil and gas industry, and securing energy supplies for sustained growth of our economy. The project will advance Australia's leadership in the science of offshore geotechnical engineering and foster research training opportunities for future engineering leaders.
