The application of flexible risers has led to increased production of fluid contents in the marine industry. This paper presents the design challenges of a flexible riser subjected to internal pressure under deep-water conditions, at a water depth of 2000 m. Parametric variations with extensive dynamic analysis were carried out.

It is imperative to assess coastal vulnerability to safeguard coastal areas against extreme events and sea-level rise. In the Niger Delta region, coastal vulnerability index assessment in the past focused on open-access parameters without comparing the open-access parameters, especially coastal elevation and shoreline change. This sensitivity to the shoreline method and open-access coastal elevation limits the information for the planning of coastal adaptation.

Recent activities in the oil and gas industry have shown an increasing need for monitoring engagements, such as in shipping, logistics, exploration, drilling, or production. Hence, there is a need to have asset management of these offshore assets (or facilities). Much of the offshore infrastructure is currently approaching or past its operational life expectancy.

Over the past 15 years, interest in additive manufacturing (AM) on lattice structures has significantly increased in producing 3D/4D objects. The purpose of this study is to gain a thorough grasp of the research pattern and the condition of the field's research today as well as identify obstacles towards future research. To accomplish the purpose, this work undertakes a scientometric analysis of the international research conducted on additive manufacturing for lattice structure materials published from 2002 to 2022.
