10-Day Training Course

The 10-Day Training on A-Z of Subsea Engineering

Subsea Equipment, Technology, Systems and Processes for Oil & Gas Production

Course Overview

The Oil and Gas industry is a key driver of the global economy. As many onshore and shallow-water offshore reserves are being depleted, there has been a significant increase in the exploration and production of oil and gas in deeper waters. It is anticipated that the majority of future offshore exploration will take place in deep and ultra-deep waters. Subsea engineering has undergone significant advancements in recent years, yet the industry still faces numerous challenges, particularly in terms of cost, operations, and maintenance.

For offshore and subsea engineers or managers, having a thorough understanding of the subsea sector—including technologies, management, design, operation, and maintenance—is crucial.

This 10-day Energy training course on subsea engineering has been developed to cover subsea equipment, technologies, systems, processes, and the interface with topside systems such as Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) units and Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) platforms.

The training course offers valuable international perspectives on the offshore subsea industry, providing solid business insights, and equipping participants with the skills to identify, develop, and retain talent, thus gaining a competitive edge and ensuring long-term career advancement. This training is vital for those seeking to further enhance their skills in subsea and marine design, operations, and management.

Key topics of the 10-Day Training on A-Z of Subsea Engineering training course include:

  • An extensive overview of the evolving Offshore Subsea and Marine Technology sector
  • An introduction to different subsea equipment, systems, and technologies
  • A focus on subsea project management and the roles and responsibilities across multiple disciplines
  • An enhancement of your understanding of subsea system engineering
  • Techniques for subsea equipment installation
  • Subsea processing methods
  • Subsea pipeline design, installation, and repair strategies
  • Insights into the latest subsea inspection technologies, operations, and maintenance practices
  • The role of Subsea Architecture and its integration with topside systems like FPSO and FLNG
  • Operational and maintenance procedures for FPSO and FLNG systems

Modules

This training course is split into two modules:

MODULE I - Subsea Equipment and Technology for Oil & Gas Production

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

Each modules is structured and can be taken as a stand-alone training course; however, delegates with will maximise their benefits by taking Module 1 and 2 back-to-back as a 2-week training course.

Course Objectives
