Oceanic hydrodynamic processes around the Shetland Islands: a data study on the prevailing ocean conditions and main characteristics

Subsea Rock Installation vessels cover pipelines, which transport oil from oil and gas fields. This is done by means of a flexible fallpipe until depths of 1000 meters. Around the Shetland Islands, the workability of the vessels at two specific project locations is compromised by the conditions in the ocean. In this research, data from a 3D...
