The costs for scour protection around gravity anchors in a typical offshore project are in the order of 10-20 million dollars. With the increasing number of gravity anchors being installed in Australian waters, significant cost savings are expected to be achieved through improved understanding of local scour and scour protection around gravity anchors. The outcomes of this project can be applied directly to the design of new large diameter pipelines, will lead to reduction of scour protection costs and enhancement of safety of the pipeline to be stabilized, and increase the competitiveness of Australian oil and gas industry.

在典型的海上工程中，重力锚周围的冲刷防护费用大约为1000万至2000万美元。随着越来越多的重力锚被安装在澳大利亚沃茨，通过提高对重力锚周围的局部冲刷和冲刷防护的理解，预计将实现显著的成本节约。该项目的成果可直接应用于新的大口径管道的设计，将导致减少冲刷保护成本和提高管道的安全性，并提高澳大利亚石油和天然气工业的竞争力。
