Using this tool we are able to model the inherently non-linear response of subsea equipment in both the time and frequency domain and assess a diverse range of dynamic offshore marine systems in an efficient and productive way.Īs with any other engineering software, the true value that OrcaFlex creates is only accessible by having a deep engineering knowledge and experience, which is where we come in: we are expert users of the software and have a deep knowledge of the industry and regulatory frameworks (DNV, API, etc) and are internationally recognised as a leading authority in delivering advanced global analysis on increasingly complex engineering projects. OrcaFlex is a powerful tool that encompasses a large variety of objects and features which enable assessing complex systems and applications through a mathematical model. Offshore marine systems design is a complex undertaking which is highly regulated and carries significant risk, and for which even small improvements can significantly increase safety and reduce costs.Īt PDL we undertake dynamic analysis of offshore marine systems using the world’s leading package software OrcaFlex in order to assess and optimise new and existing offshore marine designs and operations.
