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黑料社檚 largest marine science and ocean technology exhibition and conference.
A half-day session on Wednesday 16 March will look at 黑料社楳onitoring Structural Integrity: Understanding Risk and Reliability黑料社� 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
黑料社淭hose 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,黑料社� explain Tom Johnson and Feargal Brennan.
黑料社淧resentations 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.黑料社�
黑料社淧resentations in this highly relevant session will be mirrored by some of the exhibits on a packed exhibition show floor,黑料社� explains Event Director, Jonathan Heastie of Reed Exhibitions. 黑料社淣aturally 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 黑料社楳anagement of risk and reliability in structural integrity during the life cycle of offshore installations by the implementation of structural monitoring techniques黑料社�. His presentation will be followed by 黑料社楧esign of a monitoring system for determining wellhead fatigue utilisation黑料社� by Prahlad Enuganti, Technical manager, 2H Offshore; and 黑料社楯ackup motions monitoring for safety and operational efficiency黑料社�.
Following a short break for networking, Sandip Ukani, Engineer Director, Pulse Structural Monitoring Ltd will be talking about 黑料社楻OV deployable curvature sensor for pipeline span monitoring黑料社�; his presentation will be followed by Robert J Barker or BMT Scientific Marine Services who will be considering 黑料社楳arine and structural integrity monitoring for the Glen Lyon FPSO黑料社�. The final speaker in the session will be Neptune Geomatics黑料社� Project Manager, Gwilym Conran, looking at 黑料社楴epCAT 3D catenary monitoring system黑料社�.
