Wave, current and sea level conditions for the desalination plant of Sfax

Sfax (Tunisia)

 

Client : Sogreah Gulf

Date of completion : 2021-2022



For the study of the stability of intake and exhaust pipelines of the desalination firm of Sfax, Globocean has conducted a study in order to assess the wave, current, and storm surges along theses pipelines.


The following tasks were successively performed :

  • Modelling of offshore sea-states (software WaveWatchIII

  • Modelling of currents and sea levels in the project area (hydrodynamic softwareTelemac2D)

  • Preparation of the atmospheric and astronomic inputs of the hydrodynamic model

  • Validation current measurement within the project area (metocean survey)

  • Extreme analysis of sea-states and storm surges conditioned to the sea level (Uni-variate extreme value analysis)
