Abstract

There are two purposes for the marine structures used for fossil fuel: transporting huge amounts of crude oil and petroleum products and producing petroleum resources on the ocean in an isolated operational environment. Both types of structures are exposed to dangerous situations by sea conditions. Such marine structures are greatly affected by ocean climate conditions and its changes. Because of such ocean climate changes, it has been necessary to monitor marine structures. This research discusses the difficulties with adopting a new methodology based on a ubiquitous sensor network and develops an optimized sensor network management system design for a marine structure.
