Design of Offshore Foundations with Large Penetration into Multilayered Soils

这项研究的成果将使澳大利亚沃茨的石油和天然气开采更加安全和有效。海上石油和天然气开发是澳大利亚的一个关键产业，每年为经济贡献超过210亿澳元，并支撑着我们的大部分繁荣。新的数值模型和设计指南将使钻井平台和平台在我们具有挑战性的海底条件下更加安全有效地运行，为我们的石油和天然气行业的未来竞争力做出贡献，并为我们的经济持续增长确保能源供应。该项目将推动澳大利亚在近海岩土工程科学方面的领导地位，并为未来的工程领导者提供研究培训机会。

The outcomes of this research will allow safer and more efficient extraction of oil and gas in Australian waters. Offshore oil and gas development is a key Australian industry, annually contributing over A$21 billion to the economy, and underpinning much of our prosperity. The new numerical models and design guidelines will allow rigs and platforms to operate more safely and efficiently in our challenging seabed conditions, contributing to the future competitiveness of our oil and gas industry, and securing energy supplies for sustained growth of our economy. The project will advance Australia's leadership in the science of offshore geotechnical engineering and foster research training opportunities for future engineering leaders.
