Published by , Editor
World 鶹ýӳ,


The contribution of the monitoring of offshore structures to reduce risk and improve reliability is key to achieving operational efficiencies in the offshore oil and gas industry and is a new topic to come under the conference spotlight at Oceanology International 2016 (OI 2016), the world鶹ýӳs largest marine science and ocean technology exhibition and conference.

A half-day session on Wednesday 16 March will look at 鶹ýӳMonitoring Structural Integrity: Understanding Risk and Reliability鶹ýӳ through the eyes of its co-chairmen, Tom Johnson, President, BMT Scientific Marine Services and Feargal Brennan, Director of Energy, Cranfield University and six experts in the field.

Comments

鶹ýӳThose attending the session will learn how regulators, certification authorities and industry practitioners use measurements and monitored information to conduct quantitative assessments of risk and reliability across a range of offshore engineering functions,鶹ýӳ explain Tom Johnson and Feargal Brennan.

鶹ýӳPresentations will address uncertainty and fitness-for-service approaches for non-standard operations and the session discussions will explore how novel technologies can be further developed to better support structural integrity offshore.鶹ýӳ

鶹ýӳPresentations in this highly relevant session will be mirrored by some of the exhibits on a packed exhibition show floor,鶹ýӳ explains Event Director, Jonathan Heastie of Reed Exhibitions. 鶹ýӳNaturally at this challenging time for the offshore industry operational efficiency is vital, and we are delighted to host such an important session.

Down to detail

Taking place on the morning of Wednesday 16 March, Alex Stacy, Structural Inspector, Energy Division, Health & Safety Executive will be addressing 鶹ýӳManagement of risk and reliability in structural integrity during the life cycle of offshore installations by the implementation of structural monitoring techniques鶹ýӳ. His presentation will be followed by 鶹ýӳDesign of a monitoring system for determining wellhead fatigue utilisation鶹ýӳ by Prahlad Enuganti, Technical manager, 2H Offshore; and 鶹ýӳJackup motions monitoring for safety and operational efficiency鶹ýӳ.

Following a short break for networking, Sandip Ukani, Engineer Director, Pulse Structural Monitoring Ltd will be talking about 鶹ýӳROV deployable curvature sensor for pipeline span monitoring鶹ýӳ; his presentation will be followed by Robert J Barker or BMT Scientific Marine Services who will be considering 鶹ýӳMarine and structural integrity monitoring for the Glen Lyon FPSO鶹ýӳ. The final speaker in the session will be Neptune Geomatics鶹ýӳ Project Manager, Gwilym Conran, looking at 鶹ýӳNepCAT 3D catenary monitoring system鶹ýӳ.
