ABOUT PRANJAL SAHAI

Currently working as Offshore Structural Engineer who is responsible for detailed modeling and simulation using SACS and ANSYS software, performing in-place analysis, pre service analysis, spectral fatigue analysis, ship impact analysis and other dynamic analysis of topsides and jackets. Optimizing designs through static structural analysis, eigenvalue buckling analysis, dynamic structuralanalysis, root cause failure analysis study, fitness for troubleshooting in various critical situation of number of projects using FEM and saved considerable cost and time. Collaborating with teams to implement design improvements. Well versed with internationally recognised standards like AISC, MODU, CAP437, DNV, ISO, API, IS, EN, BS, ACI etc.My works invlove -• Pre service analysis like Inplace, Lift, Loadout and Transportation analysis of topsides, jackets and bridges.• Spectral Fatigue Analysis of jackets.• Boat impact analysis for riser protector.• Performed in-place, transportation, and seismic analysis of diesel tanks to assess performance under operational and extreme conditions.• Provided complete engineering support for Helideck Analysis consisting of structural analysis using Ansys as per CAP437, MODU etc.• Performed Wave and Current Load Comparison using SACS.• Prepare 3D model for various structure on jack-up rigs like Derrick, Sub- Structure, platforms for Seajet pumps and Silo etc.• Performed Mooring Analysis using Wincat.• Draughted report after doing dynamic analysis for 16” Mouse Hole Installation using ANSYS.Calculation -Tow acceleration calculations, COG shift calculations, Hand calculations for determining leg weight of rigs, Bolt Calculation, Flange Bending Calculation, Weight Control Report, Allowable Leg Bending Moment Calculations etc
