Anchor Analysis

[Posted on July 05]

Analysis and examination of the work being done and the processes used to complete that work are a key aspect in every industry and something that is particularly important in the offshore and marine drilling industry. Those of us that work in this field recognize the need for constant observations and the collection of data so that we can perform the various types of analysis that effects the work we do, such as anchor analysis, pipe lay analysis, jack-up analysis and seakeeping analysis. At Stewart Technology associates, we've been providing our clients with all of these services since we were founded 25 years ago.

Our company's founder, Bil Stewart, has been able to oversee the growth of STA by continually delivering on the services we promise to provide our clients. Those clients, which come from all parts of the world and include those in the government organizations and major drilling companies, turn to us when they want credible and expert analysis on their offshore structures. The information we provide allows them to make changes and adjustments to their operations in order to increase the overall efficiency, productivity and safety so that they can reach their full potential.

When there's a mistake or an accident that occurs with your pile anchors, for example, we're able to provide the kind of expert anchor analysis that can help you avoid those same mistakes in the future. We're also able to perform a more thorough marine accident investigation when needed so that we can pinpoint the exact cause of an accident and determine who, if anyone, was at fault. That's a valuable resource for an organization that needs an unbiased look at a situation in order to get the answers they need moving forward.

Those that have worked in this industry a long time, like STA founder Bil Stewart, have seen a number of changes over the years and we expect more to be made, especially as the scrutiny grows stronger following recent events that garnered national coverage. Many of the advancements that have been made have come as a direct result of the work STA has done with our clients. Orcina, the developer of the widely used OrcaFlex software, has long been a valued partner of STA and that relationship has yielded a tremendous amount of value for our customers in the past and will continue to do so in the future.
