Subsea Systems, Processes and Topside Interface for Oil & Gas Production

Course Overview

As onshore and shallow-water offshore reserves continue to deplete, the need for deepwater oil and gas exploration and production has become more pressing. It is expected that most future offshore exploration efforts will focus on deep and ultra-deep waters.

For offshore, subsea, and marine engineers or managers, it is essential to have a thorough understanding of the subsea and marine sectors, including subsea systems, subsea processing, and the design of topside facilities.

This Energy training course has been specifically designed to address subsea production systems and processes, as well as the design, operation, and repair of subsea pipelines. The course will also examine the key technical challenges and risks involved in the operation and maintenance of subsea topside interfaces, such as Floating Production, Storage, and Offloading (FPSO) units and Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) systems. Participants will gain valuable knowledge that will help them advance their projects.

The training course will provide participants with global insights into the subsea and marine industries, enabling them to retain talent and ensure long-term career growth. This course is crucial for those aiming to enhance their subsea and marine design, operational, and managerial skills.

Key topics covered in this Subsea Systems, Processes and Topside Interface for Oil & Gas Production training course will include:

  • The evolution of the offshore, subsea, and marine industries
  • Various subsea production systems
  • Subsea processing technologies
  • Techniques for subsea pipeline design, installation, and repair
  • Subsea architecture and the topside interface, including FPSO and FLNG systems
