Project Design Basis
Master project parameters that drive all OG Suite calculations. Set once, populate everywhere — Cost Estimator, Engineering Calculator, Design Generator & Schedule.
“Begin with the end in mind.” — Stephen Covey
Design Basis: This document defines the fundamental project parameters and constraints. All fields are optional — complete what is known at your current study phase. Save at any time; data is stored locally in your browser and flows to all OG Suite tools via the shared design basis.
Fluid Properties
⚠ WAT above typical seabed temperature — flow assurance strategy required.
Auto-Calculated Production Profile
⚠ Simplified plateau + exponential decline model — validate with reservoir engineer.

Primary Design Codes
Baseline Requirements
- •Pile Safety Factor: API RP 2A-WSD (1.5 axial, 2.0 overturning)
- •Seismic Zone: Zone 0 — non-seismic (negligible)
- •Gas Flaring: Permitted with BSEE approval
- •Produced Water: MARPOL 30 ppm limit offshore
- •Regulatory Gates: APD (Application to Drill), APM (Application to Modify)
- •Hurricane design (100-year return), MMS/BSEE inspection regime
Cost / Schedule Implications: Baseline — no additional compliance premium.
