SACS | Offshore Structural Analysis and Design Software
Improve the design, analysis, safety, and reliability of offshore structures with SACS.
Category/OFFSHORE STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
What is SACS Offshore Structure?
SACS Offshore Structure is offshore structure analysis software that helps you optimize your designs to ensure compliance, understand the behavior of all types of offshore structures, and accurately predict their performance.
What is SACS Offshore Structure Advanced?
SACS Offshore Structure Advanced extends the core SACS Offshore Structure software with additional wind load analysis capabilities. This enables the production of more optimized, high-quality surface structures for fixed and floating offshore structures.
What is SACS Offshore Structure Ultimate?
SACS Offshore Structure Ultimate is the most comprehensive software for offshore structural analysis. It includes all the features of SACS Offshore Structure Advanced plus wave loading capabilities for static structural analysis and above-ground structures. This allows you to easily create jackets, docks, mooring posts, and more.
Additional modules
The following modules are also available to add to the SACS Offshore Structure Ultimate package:
- Pile Structure Design: for the analysis of the interaction between the soil, the piers and the structure
- Collapse and Collapse Advanced: for advanced nonlinear plastic analysis
- Fatigue Ultimate: Analysis of linear static and dynamic systems under wind, wave, and seismic loads for fatigue damage and structural code checks.
- OpenWindPower Fixed Foundation: Complete package containing Offshore Structure Ultimate, Pile Structure Design, Collapse and Fatigue Ultimate
Analysis of offshore structures
Conduct comprehensive analyses, including all nonlinear, dynamic, and impact effects, to predict the behavior of your platform or surfaced structure under a range of conditions. Model pylon-soil interactions and apply loads related to wind, wave motion, earthquakes, ship collisions, falling objects, and explosions to obtain a full range of potential events.
Automated workflows
Customizable templates within a common structural model simplify the management of multiple analyses. Automatically move data from one analysis stage to another using industry-standard methodologies. Automated workflows simplify the management of large and complex models, encouraging the team to explore multiple design options.
Ensuring Code Compliance
Integrated control ensures projects comply with international offshore codes, including API, AISC, EC, ISO, DNV, and Norsok. The software allows you to filter for critical conditions and provide compliance documentation.
