Australia's increasing offshore oil and gas exploration has demanded more accurate and reliable methods for evaluating the safety and serviceability of pipelines. Local scour around pipelines is one of the major causes of pipeline failures, and is a major concern in Australian waters. This project not only addresses these concerns in its direct application to the design and management of offshore pipelines, but also will contribute to the nation's development and competitiveness in offshore exploration, and produce high quality research students. The improved design and management of pipelines in Australian waters will reduce the risk of potential environmental damages caused by leaking gas and oil.

澳大利亚不断增加的海上石油和天然气勘探需要更准确和可靠的方法来评估管道的安全性和可用性。管道周围的局部冲刷是管道失效的主要原因之一，也是澳大利亚沃茨的一个主要问题。该项目不仅解决了这些问题，直接应用于海上管道的设计和管理，而且将有助于国家在海上勘探的发展和竞争力，并培养高素质的研究生。澳大利亚沃茨管道的改进设计和管理将降低天然气和石油泄漏造成潜在环境破坏的风险。
