BFLEX Program System ››
The BFLEX Program System is a special-purpose computer tool for analysis of extreme stresses and fatigue in the tensile- and pressure armour layers of flexible pipes. Thus the application area is typically a detailed cross-sectional analysis of the last 10-15 meters of a riser close to the termination point on the vessel.

MACSI - Marine Crane Simulation ››
MACSI is a program for dynamic analysis of subsea crane operations for evaluation of system performance and operational limits. It is a PC-based program for simulation of offshore crane operations, where an object is lifted or lowered through the water to the sea bed. Various configurations and equipment with nonlinear characteristics can be handled by the program.

MIMOSA - A market leader in mooring analysis ››
MIMOSA is a program for analysis of mooring systems of moored vessels. The program offers a variety of options such as calculation of the vessel’s wave frequency and low-frequency motions and mooring line tensions. Several options are available for analysis of the properties of the mooring system and individual mooring lines. Mimosa is up-to-date with respect to all calculations required by the Norwegian Maritime Directorate (NMD) and the American Petroleum Institute (API) for approval of positioning systems.

MOOROPT-2 - A MIMOSA TOOLBOX program ››
MOOROPT-2 is a toolbox program for MIMOSA. the purpose of the program is to find values of design variables that give minimum system cost while satisfying a specified set of constraints. The program carries out conceptual design of both mooring lines and riser lines.

MOPSIM - Real-time simulator for complex marine operations ››
MOPSIM is a real-time simulator for marine operations, aimed at operational evaluation and personnel training. The simulator development was financed by Norsk Hydro and software for graphical display developed by Ceetron AS. Different marine operations can be simulated by MOPSIM: Replacement of flexible risers, heavy-lift crane operations, installation of seabed structures, platform removal, installation of jackets, float-over mating, TLP-installation (positioning, tether installation), FPSO installation (mooring or DP), offshore loading of oil or gas, deep-water intervention and deep-water pipe-laying.

RIFLEX - Riser System Analysis Program ››
RIFLEX is a tailor-made and advanced tool for static and dynamic analysis of slender marine structures. It represents state-of-the-art technology for riser analysis suitable for flexible, metallic or steel catenary riser applications.

SIMLA - a special purpose computer tool for engineering analysis of offshore pipelines during design, installation and operation ››
In recent years, more and more pipelines have been installed on uneven seabed, both in deepwater fields and in the inshore zone, while production temperatures in the reservoirs have also been increasing. This trend is continuing in new field developments. SIMLA is MARINTEK’s newly developed computer tool for analysis of offshore pipelines in deep waters and rough environments. Currently available functionality includes pipelaying and inspection of free spans. The initial version of SIMLA was developed by MARINTEK for Norsk Hydro ASA, with Ceetron GLview AS and Systems in Motion as sub-contractors on 3D visualization.
