About the course
This course provides an in-depth understanding of the complex design issues affecting deepwater subsea pipelines and risers. It is recommended as additional learning from the Design of subsea pipelines - Part 1 course, to deepen design capabilities and know-how.
Duration: 4 days
Level: Practitioner
Price: Aberdeen: £2200 + VAT (17.5%); Abu Dhabi/Houston: US$3400
You will gain from this course
- An understanding of the more challenging design issues affecting subsea pipelines
- Engineering skills to combat tougher design challenges such as deep water, high pressure, high temperature and highly corrosive fluids/gases
- A knowledge of which questions to ask to keep your project on-track
- Worked examples following codes of practice that you can use in future projects
Exercises, worked examples and case-studies build delegates' understanding of real-life engineering issues and lessons learned for current and future projects.
Who this course is for
Anyone with responsibility for pipeline design work or who has to approve pipeline design, including:
- Pipeline and subsea engineers
- Design engineers
- Facilities engineers
- Subsea pipeline specialists
- Project engineers and managers
- Engineering team managers, leaders and supervisors responsible for design engineers and pipelines
- Those who have already attended the Design of subsea pipelines - Part 1 course.
(Please note that it is not a pre-requisite to attend Part 1 before Part 2. You may attend these courses in any order).
