A concrete coated steel gas pipeline is to be laid between two offshore platforms in 100 m water depth where the maximum environmental conditions include waves of 20 m wave height and 14 s period. The pipeline outside diameter is 46 cm, and the clay bottom slope is 1 on 100. Determine the submerged unit weight of the pipe. Assume linear wave theory is valid and that the bottom current is negligible.
