Funded Activity Summary

Estimation of spudcan penetration resistance in stratified soils directly from field penetrometer data and quantification of punch-through risk. Foundations for mobile drilling rigs exhibit significant failure rate in the offshore oil and gas industry, which contributes $22 billion annually to the Australian economy. The project will develop a robust design approach for these foundations, based on field penetrometer data and accounting for the highly stratified nature of offshore sediments.
