AB - This article uses the deepwater drilling riser equipped on a specific ocean  drilling vessel as an example to establish a dynamic analysis model of the  riser, and analyzes the lateral deformation characteristics of the riser  under different working conditions and examines the impact of various  factors on the lateral displacement of the riser. Research shows that under  normal connection modes, maximum deformation occurs at the upper-middle  section of the riser. Under suspended evacuation modes, the lateral  deformation of the riser exhibits a trend of initially increasing and then  decreasing. Ocean current velocity is one of the primary influencing factors  on the lateral vibration characteristics of the riser.
