A flexible riser is installed in a water depth of 110 m. As shown in Figure 1(Q2) it is clamped to a rigid riser support structure at the water depth of 25 meters. If the apparent weight of the riser per unit of length is 1500 N/m, draft of the vessel is 6 m, sagbend elevation is 18m, and the length of the riser between the support structure and the riser connection point is 160m, calculate of top tension applied at the riser connection point. Assume that the riser is a simple inextensible cable.

Question
A flexible riser is installed in a water depth of 110 m. As shown in Figure 1(Q2) it is
clamped to a rigid riser support structure at the water depth of 25 meters. If the apparent
weight of the riser per unit of length is 1500 N/m, draft of the vessel is 6 m, sagbend
elevation is 18m, and the length of the riser between the support structure and the riser
connection point is 160m, calculate of top tension applied at the riser connection point.
Assume that the riser is a simple inextensible cable.
