Abstract: The use of submarine pipelines for economical and safe transportation of hydrocarbons is inevitable. As the applicability of pipelines are extended to other purposes, pipeline mileage is increasing alarmingly and into more hostile environment. Since wave force on submarine pipelines is identified to be a major force estimation of wave forces is of vital importance for design purposes. In this paper, an attempt has been made to identify possible reasons for discrepancies in the results of hydrodynamic coefficients. Various experimental results of wave forces on pipelines in newly constructed 2 m wide wave flume are also compared with the results available in literature. Based on the analysis, hydrodynamic coefficients to be used in the design are suggested.
