Demolition of Special Structures. Proceedings of a One-Day Conference Held at London, England on September, 20, 1984
The paper considers the factors governing the formation of a policy for the abandonment of UK oil and gas production platforms. It discusses alternative forms of abandonment and the engineering and financial factors involved. Both steel-piled and concrete-gravity platforms are considered and the influence that their inherently different natures has on the choice of abandonment policy. This policy may range from leaving the platforms in place through various stages of partial removal to complete removal to seabed level. The UK Government has not formed a final view on what its requirement will be but it seems likely that a flexible approach will be adopted taking into account different water depths, locations and types of platform.
