Summary and Further Thoughts
This conclusion presents an overview of the key concepts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. The book argues that ageing involves offshore structures being exposed to an environment causing progressive degradation and damage from loads from natural hazards and accidental impacts. The way these structures are used will often change over the years, which as a result will modify the loading and possibly the configuration of the structure. Ageing and life extension can introduce new issues and challenges and the book addresses these in detail. It is recognised that life extension is a relatively new concept that highlights the issues of ageing and the methods for its justification are developing. Ultimately, the safety of personnel working on these ageing structures and any potential environmental damage resulting from an incident on an ageing structure are paramount. The book finally discusses further work and research needs related to ageing structures.
