Why Choose this Training Course?

With the depletion of many onshore and offshore shallow-water reserves, the exploration and production of oil and gas in deep water became more necessary than before. It is anticipated that the majority of the future offshore explorations will be conducted in the deep and ultra-deep waters.

As an offshore or subsea or marine engineer or manager, it is crucial to have a clear understanding of the subsea and marine industries including subsea systems, subsea processing and the architecture of topside facilities.

This PetroKnowledge training course has been designed to cover subsea production systems, processes, subsea pipelines design, operation and repair. The training course will also cover the key technical challenges and risks associated with the operation and maintenance of subsea topside interface such as Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) and Floating Liquified Natural Gas (FLNG). This PetroKnowledge training course will arm the participants with a wealth of knowledge to help them advance their project.

This PetroKnowledge training course will give you the international insight of the subsea and marine industry to enable you to retain your talent in order to ensure sustainable career growth.   This training course is essential for those who need to develop their subsea and marine design, operational and managerial skills further.
