DNV GL Calls for Technology Qualification Standards
and safe alternatives to current expensive physical testing or be used in conjunction with existing methods. These alternative methods can explore the effects from parameter variations and how different sub-systems or single components affect the entire system performance. By using non-intrusive numerical modeling tools to establish a common modeling platform, a wide variety of validated models can be used in the system qualification to virtually test system operational ranges and failures. “The Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (NPD) reports that subsea tie-back represents the most relevant

of Marine and Atmospheric Science. “I have dedicated my life to the study and conservation of the ocean and freediving makes me feel one with the water.” As an ocean scientist at the UM Rosenstiel School, Claire Paris' research focuses on dispersion at sea. She has developed numerical modeling tools used worldwide to track oceanic currents, pollutants and the early life forms of marine organisms that dwell in the plankton, whether they are baby fish or coral larvae. To inform her virtual larvae with realistic behaviors, she has also developed a unique underwater drifting laboratory
