[0002] The strength of the shallow unconsolidated formation in deep sea is not high, the soil is soft, and the soil layer is relatively thick. During the deep-water drilling process, collapse is likely to occur. The establishment of a subsea wellhead is a key link in the construction of deep-water drilling projects. The suction wellhead is suitable for building wells on soft seabed, with small installation disturbance and large bearing capacity, and its application in marine resource development is becoming increasingly widespread.
[0003] The suction foundation has been widely used in the pile foundation of offshore engineering structures, but its application as a wellhead foundation structure is still in the exploratory stage.

The wellhead layout of the suction pile follows the principle of central symmetry, and the dual wells are symmetrically arranged on the center line of the top surface of the suction pile. As the number of wellheads increases, the outer diameter and weight of the suction pile increase exponentially, which puts higher requirements on the lateral stability performance of the structure.
