As reservoirs that a few years ago would not have been considered for development become proposed for exploitation, the offshore industry continues to move into both technically and economically difficult areas. Consequently, the challenge of designing for subsea environments in deep water areas has had to be considered.

These proceedings concentrate on the future of the industry, identifying the requirements for a new generation of pipelines, and will be of value to offshore designers and engineers. Sections are: Managing Pipeline Integrity, Technical Developments, and Deepwater Developments. Also includes 110 figures and tables.
