This book was released on 1978 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The following report presents the findings of a feasibility study, authorized by Gulf Oil Canada Limited (GOCAN) in March of 1977, to investigate the possibility of constructing an artificial island for the production of hydro-carbons in 95ft. of water in the Beaufort Sea, NWT. In order to provide a practical base for the study, the 1976 exploration drill site at Tingmiark was chosen by GOCAN as a site with environmental and soil characteristics representative of possible future hydro-carbon production sites in the general area. The project team chosen to perform the study consists of Swan Wooster Engineering Co. Ltd. (Swanco) to provide the civil engineering, Golder Brawner and Associates Ltd. (Golder Associates) to provide the geotechnical engineering, and Northern Construction Company to provide the contracting expertise and cost estimates. The scope of work involved in the study was divided into three tasks or sub-sections. Task 1, the First Stage, consisted of an initial or conceptual design stage of three Concept Islands based on design concepts proposed by Gocan, assessment of the methods of analysis and review of sources of materials and equipment. Task 2, the Second Stage, consisted of performing the analysis of wave and current scour and soil resistance to ice attack on modified versions of the Concept Islands. Task 3, or the Third Stage of the study, consisted of the finalization of the Concept Islands, a more comprehensive assessment of normal ice regime and ice rubble participation, finalization of the equipment construction schedules and cost estimates for capital and maintenance costs. ... The findings of this feasibility study indicate that Concept Island 2B (revised) would be more suitable for location in the 95ft. water depth of the Beaufort Sea than Concept Island 1 .... A feasibility study of this nature involving building an artificial island in 95ft. of water, twice the water depth attempted to date, and in the shear ice zone 50 miles offshore and beyond the present experience with island construction in the land-fast ice zone, is bound to turn up many areas requiring further study. A number of these are listed in the final Section 15 as considerations for ongoing studies"--ASTIS database.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Between Dome Petroleum Company of Calgary - Alberta, Canada, and Nedeco of The Hague, Holland, an agreement has been concluded for technical assistance in the study of the possibilities of an artificial island in the Beaufort Sea for oil exploitation. In this framework an order for a partial study was granted to Rijkswaterstaat in order to determine the slopes which can be realized in the construction of such an island. This study has been carried out in close cooperation with the Delft Soil Mechanics Laboratory. ... The question, if a slope of 1 : 5 could be realized, has been added to this problem definition. The aim of the study was to determine how, as a function of equipment execution methods, borrow material properties and observing the physical boundary conditions c.q. circumstances, an as steep as possible slope could be realized, with sand and construction material. In the study other construction methods, should not be envisaged at this stage. The study, which has the character of a prefeasibility study, should be carried out as a desk study in which the different determining parameters should be varied as much as possible.

Book excerpt: "A production facility is being considered for the extraction of oil from the Kopanoar Field in the Canadian Beaufort Sea where water depths are approximately 60 metres (200 ft). Various types of structures are being contemplated. These include primarily two different types, namely a standard artificial island with berms and caissons, and a gravity structure with berms for ice load protection. A major obstacle to the design of either type of facility is a very soft upper seabed clay stratum approximately 6 metres (20 ft) thick. This feasibility design study addresses primarily the aspects of an artificial island stability related to the foundation soil conditions. The objectives were to obtain a geotechnically sound and economically feasible conceptual design, and to evaluate other possible designs that could be constructed with equipment presently available to Dome Petroleum Ltd. in the Beaufort Sea. These objectives have been met. ... The conclusions of this feasibility study may be summarized as follows: 1. The artificial island would be unstable if founded on 6 m (20 ft) of very soft seabed clays unless it was constructed slowly over a period of many years. 2. Vertical drains used below the entire island to reduce consolidation time would be uneconomical for this project. In addition, an extended construction period would be required to allow time for sufficient strength gain in the very soft seabed clays. 3. Partial removal of the very soft seabed clays would also necessitate an extended construction period. 4. Key soils and field testing data are required to quantitatively assess the potential benefits of dynamic consolidation on stability. 5. Fill displacement methods of construction may result in sand intrusions within the very soft seabed soils or displacement of these soils. Field test data are required to evaluate this construction procedure. 6. The optimum design would involve removal of the very soft seabed clays from approximately berm crest to berm crest, beneath the island core. Additional soils data are required to determine the precise extent of removal. 7. The potential for berm toe instability is not believed to be a serious impediment to the feasibility of the artificial island, but needs further investigation. 8. The findings reported herein are based on the limited soil data currently available in the region of the proposed Kopanoar Island. When a precise location has been selected and site-specific geotechnical testing carried out, it may be possible to optimize the design of the island. The present study is based on a realistic interpretation of the regional conditions, but because of the limited data currently available it is necessarily conservative"--Executive summary.
