<p>"… one of its kind… links both risk and reliability with application examples to offshore structures … an essential reference book for practicing engineers in offshore engineering."<br />—Professor Arvind Kumar Jain, Department of Civil Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, India<br /><br />"This is a great book on the general subjects of structural reliability and risk assessment for off-shore structures. … a comprehensive presentation of the art and science of the assessment of off-shore structure system reliability."<br />—Shen-En Chen, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, USA<br /><br />"… gives a basic understanding of all topics related to reliability and risk assessment of offshore structures using probabilistic methods. Examples dealing with Mathieu’s stability and responses to high sea waves and seismic excitation of TLP tethers enable easy understanding of the fundamental concepts. I strongly recommend this book as an essential reference book for academicians, researchers, engineers and professionals in oil and gas industry, as it is the priority now to extend the life of existing platforms based on scientific calculation of reliability leading to accurate prediction of structural integrity."<br />—Professor Kurian V. John, Universiti Teknologi Petronas, Malaysia</p><p>"…there is much to recommend in this book. In addition to basic applicable theory and procedures for which the book could serve as an appropriate educational tool for the beginner and intermediate reader, there are also more than a few applications particular to offshore structures that are interspersed within the text that appear to serve well to hold the reader’s interest in a sustained manner. I am, therefore, happy to recommend this book not only to students of the subject, but also to researchers and engineers. Readers should find it a very good resource of useful information all in one place, not only to supplement their current knowledge, but also to revisit subsequently as needed." <br />—<i>Journal of Ocean Engineering and Marine Energy</i>, March 2017</p>
