Why Choose this Training Course?

The Oil and Gas Offshore Engineering projects are technically and commercially challenging, therefore good knowledge and competency of the project team members throughout the different phases of works are keys to the successful execution of these projects.

This PetroKnowledge training course aims to provide the participants with comprehensive foundation knowledge of Offshore Engineering. The participants will be better prepared to function in the design engineering, fabrication and construction department, offshore installation, hook-up, commissioning and start-up of offshore projects. Such roles include field and discipline engineers, project engineer, cost estimating engineers, construction and fabrication engineers, contract admin executives, CSR, construction supervisors and engineers.

The training course will cover:

  • Overview of Field Development Planning (FDP) and Offshore Project Management
  • Design engineering and procurement
  • Substructures and topsides fabrication, load-out 
  • Sea transportation and offshore installation
  • Hook-up, testing, commissioning, and start-up

The course places particular emphasis on the principles and steps of the works, using engineering calculations, flowcharts and diagrams to enhance the learning experience of the participants. Relevant international and typical client engineering standards will be referred. 

This training course will feature:

  • Overview of field development planning (FDP) and project management
  • Design engineering process, deliverables and flowchart
  • Fabrication techniques such as cutting and welding, blasting and painting
  • Erection and assembly techniques, including cranes and lifting techniques
  • Load-out techniques, preparations and ballasting
  • Sea-fastening engineering and implementation
  • Major and support marine vessels, major installation equipment
  • Structure and topsides installation techniques
  • Pipelaying and riser installation activities
  • Subsea installation and diving support activities
  • Hook-up workpack process and execution
  • Mobilisation of marine vessels, construction crew, marine crew and construction equipment
  • Hook-up activities for each engineering discipline
  • Commissioning activities, start-up and handover to client

What are the Goals?

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand what entails in field development planning (FDP) and project management
  • Understand the complexities of Offshore Engineering activities
  • Appreciate the complete metamorphosis of Offshore Engineering –from the  Design phase till the Commissioning and Start-up phase
  • Understand Fabrication, Erection, Loadout and sea-fastening implementation at Fabrication yards
  • Understand the selection of the major support marine vessels and major installation equipment for offshore installation works
  • Fully understand the structure and topsides installation techniques
  • Understand what is involved in Pipelaying and riser installation works & Subsea installation and diving support activities
  • Fully understand what are involved in mobilisation of marine vessels, construction crew, marine crew and construction equipment
  • Understand the scope of work for hook-up and commissioning activities

Who is this Training Course for?

This PetroKnowledge training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:

  • Field Engineers, CSRs, Construction Supervisors, Project engineers
  • Operations engineers
  • Workpack engineers
  • Structural engineers
  • Metocean engineers
  • Pipeline discipline engineers
  • Subsea equipment engineers
  • Various discipline engineers (structural, piping, equipment, electrical, instrumentation)
  • Maintenance engineers
  • Contract admin, buyers and procurement executives
  • Cost estimating, project control and planning engineers
  • Diving and diving support personnel
  • Managers and executives who are new to Offshore engineering projects
  • Other engineers and technicians who need to update their current Oil and Gas industry experience and wanting to move to Offshore Field development Projects
  • University engineering lecturers who wish to be CPD-certified by Institution of Engineers (IEM) at their respective countries

How will this Training Course be Presented?

This training course will be conducted in a classroom. Examples and video clips of past offshore fabrication and load-out activities, as well as offshore installation activities will be used to aid the learning and understanding of the subject matters. Participants will also take part in group classroom exercises to reinforce their learning experience. Each participant will receive a set of course materials. There will also be pre-course as well as post-course assessment tests.
