Review of academic studies for offshore structures

Offshore structures are structures constructed on the seabed or on the water surface in the open seas, generally designed for the purpose of oil and natural gas extraction, energy production and other seabed-related works. The oil obtained from offshore structures met 9% of the world's energy consumption in 1988. It is known that this value reached 24% in 2000. Today, this figure has increased even more. It is estimated that offshore construction technology will advance further as time progresses in the world. The reasons for this can be listed as the increasing trend in the world's energy demand, the decrease in energy reserves on land and the discovery of undiscovered oil fields and new energy sources in the open seas. Within the scope of this study, studies on offshore structures were examined. © IJCESEN.
