A detailed analysis of equipment and systems has confirmed that the Thistle 'A' platform has both the reliability and the flexibility to achieve the results anticipated in the huge platform's design. The reliability assessment utilized an advanced technique which recognizes the long-term, continuous operational characteristics of offshore production facilities as well as the relationships between equipment failure rates and operating time. The technique used and the results obtained are the subjects of this paper. (Jensen)
