An Interactive 5-Day Training Course
Fundamentals of Deepwater Riser Engineering
Overview of Risers in Offshore Subsea Industry
Course Overview
This GLOMACS training course on Fundamentals of Deep Water Riser Engineering is an introduction to the world of deepwater subsea products, there are many components in the field architecture of offshore and subsea projects, varying from Xmas Trees, manifolds, controls systems and risers with their variety from drilling to completion to production and injection risers.
This 5-day GLOMACS Fundamentals of Deepwater Riser Engineering training course will provide the basics of riser engineering by identifying the various riser types, their main components, the fundamental design methodologies used to identify the appropriate design for each project as well as running through the product life cycle and detailing the testing requirements for risers and their components and moving on to the main installation techniques and finally addressing the integrity management and life of field operation of deep water risers.
This GLOMACS training course will highlight:
- Overview of offshore and subsea projects
- Fundamentals of offshore and subsea intervention
