Installation loads
This articel describes the various installation loads and how they are calculated.
- self-weight (in air) loads
- pressure (buoyancy) loads
- bending loads
- dynamic drag loads
- shock loads
- point loads
- static drag loads
- temperature loads
Note: According to the principle of superposition, these loads can be added algebraically.
1. Self-weight (in air)
The self weight (in air) load is the load imposed on the casing string by gravitational effects. This load depends on the weight . . .
