OSIG Evening Geoforum – Seabed hazards – measurement, design, operation

 

Presentations are expected from BP, Fugro, Lloyd’s Register, Subsea 7 and TechnipFMC discussing techniques to measure and characterise seabed hazards, typical hazards, interpretation of hazards and their impact on assets, management of hazards during the design process, construction, in-service and beyond.

For a concept selection and design process to be effective it is important that geophysical and geotechnical data is examined early to identify seabed hazards and ensure they are accounted for as soon as possible.

Topics expected include:

  • Characterising Seabed Hazards from Geophysical Data
  • Seabed Seepage Features and their Impact on Field Design
  • Complex geology in the North Sea
  • Extremely soft soils
  • Impact of geohazards on pipeline installation
  • Registrations from 17:30
  • Presentations start 18:00 until 19:15
  • Networking event with food from 19:15
  • Event close – 20:30

Car parking will be available on site

London & South of England Evening Meeting – Deep-Sea Mining in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone: Update

Pre registration for this event is essential, if you are not on the list you will be turned away.

Deep-sea mining has seen several “false dawns” since this marine industrial activity emerged in the 1960s. This is because it presents particularly complex challenges due to its multi-faceted and interdependent technological, scientific, environmental, social, industrial, political, economic and legal aspects, all of which must be efficiently managed at both international and national governmental levels to achieve commercially viable and environmentally responsible results.

Progress at the International Seabed Authority (ISA) in addressing these challenges for the currently most commercially attractive and deep-sea hard mineral resource, the Cu, Ni and Co-containing nodules found under international waters in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone of the North Pacific Ocean, southeast of Hawai’i, have led to speculation that a more promising dawn for nodules, at least, may be imminent. This presentation describes this progress with particular regard to proposed extraction technologies, selected technical, scientific and environmental issues and the international regulatory context, with the latest developments from the 25th meeting of the ISA (July 2019). It concludes with a short video illustrating deep sea mining research at sea, with examples of resource assessment, technology deployment, and environmental baseline work.

Presenter

Dr. Philomène Verlaan JD PhD FIMarEST, Trustee, Advisory Committee on Protection of the Sea

Oceanographer (Ph.D., Imperial College London). Research interests: formation, biogeochemistry and ecology of oceanic ferromanganese crusts and nodules, biogeochemistry of micronutrient (trace) metals and plankton), deep sea (crust, nodule and seamount) ecology.

Lawyer (J.D., Florida State University); specialization: law of the sea, especially marine scientific research, marine mining, sustainable use of the marine environment and its resources). In addition to research, including (so far) 24 oceanographic cruises, she works on the interface between marine science and international marine law and policy with international and intergovernmental organizations. This involves her in the management of intergovernmental marine projects in fascinating locations and in the development of marine environmental treaties.

Professional associations: International Marine Minerals Society; Marine Technology Society, Oceanography Society, Society for Underwater Technology, Fellow of the Institute for Marine Engineering, Science and Technology.

She has so far published some 50 papers in the fields of marine science and international law of the sea. She is a Visiting Colleague with the Department of Oceanography at the University of Hawaii, a member of the World Commission on Environmental Law, Senior Adviser to the Advisory Committee on Protection of the Sea, and Representative for the International Marine Minerals Society to the International Seabed Authority.

London & South of England Lunch & Learn – Subsea Power Cables – Lessons Learned

Please click here for the presentation

This presentation will explore the financial and technical aspects of subsea cable losses in both offshore wind and submarine interconnectors.

Presenter

Capt. Sturgeon has been working in the subsea cable industry for more than 30 years, acquiring a wealth of experience, built on a foundation of 10 years command of cable ships and management of projects offshore, and diverse management roles ashore in project strategy, development and operations. He continues to be actively engaged in marine warranty survey, fault and incident investigation, and providing expert services and advice for cable projects across industry sectors. Chris is CEO of Red Penguin and more recently has also joined with other leading specialists to establish Penbridge Marine, a company formalising the collaboration of several years between Red Penguin and another leading sector specialist, Cambridge Marine, to provide focussed risk control services to the insurance market for subsea cables projects.

Get Wiser! Developing and maintaining mentally healthy workplaces

Follow the light or feel the burn! The pressure to attend to ‘whole-person’ safety and health in the workplace is turning up, with a particular focus on protecting employees’ mental health and wellbeing. With an increased sense of urgency, media coverage and the cacophony of training providers vying for your investment, it is easy to become overwhelmed.

This thirty-minute lunchtime presentation is designed to bring you back down to earth. To provide you with an introduction to the latest WA Code of Practice on mentally healthy workplaces for resources and construction sectors, give some insight to the regulators expectations and share a few things that typically get in the way of very capable people, taking positive action.

This event is run by WISE – Women in Subsea Engineering

Oceans of Opportunity – The Underwater World of Science & Technology

This Event is now fully booked.

If you would like to be wait listed please email Lisa at [email protected]

 

Oceans of Opportunity

The Underwater World of Science & Technology

Did you know?

The oceans cover over 70% of our planet. We are all dependent on them for food, transport and vital resources. They affect our weather and even our future as a species. Yet most of us are unaware of the cutting-edge developments in underwater technology, or the science it is based on, largely because it is hidden from view.

SUT looks forward to welcoming schools to this exciting annual event aimed at P7 school children to learn more about the career opportunities that our oceans have to offer. Each session will include a structured mix of audio-visual presentations by leading industry experts from a range of underwater science and technology backgrounds.
