This book presents a study for the determination of environmental load factors for Jacket Platforms in Malaysia and a methodology to determine the life extension of aging platforms. The simplified methods described here could be used for determining not only structural reliability but also safety factors. Its content is particularly interesting to design and maintenance engineers who are working in offshore or onshore industry.

Zafarullah Nizamani is Assistant Professor at the Department of Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and Green Technology, Jalan University. He has more than 15 years experience as consultant and his research interests are in structural reliability, code calibration, Bayesian updating and fluid structure interaction.

Introduction.- History of code development.- History of offshore oil production.- Jacket platform design in Malaysia.- Uncertainty.- Load Uncertainty.- Structural reliability.- Joint reliability.- Environmental load factor.
