North of England 3D Subsea Data Acquisitions with DeepOcean & Branch AGM

3D Subsea Data Acquisition

Mark Lawrence – DeepOcean

DeepOcean has developed a range of techniques for high quality 3D metrical imaging of subsea structures, which yields and innovative and cost-effective means of survey.

Mark (Manager of the ADUS Department within DeepOcean), will talk about the acquisition of 3D data subsea using the latest available techniques. He will then describe the subsequent digitalisation process throughout the project lifecycle, which will include some of the latest possibilities for improved communication of such data from complex objects subsea using Collaborative Virtual Environments.

ADUS Demonstration

Mark will give attendees the opportunity to experience recently acquired 3D data from a range of projects within the iQ3 Collaborative Virtual Environment platform using Oculus Rift VR.

Michael Williams – NoE Branch Chairman

Michael will give an update of the branch activities over the last year and outline some of the plans for the coming year.

Post talk refreshments

A finger buffet and networking opportunity will follow the talk. Please pre-register to assist us with catering for the number of anticipated attendees.

Student Posters

We are pleased to announce that a number of Newcastle University students will be displaying posters and discussing their work during the Post talk refreshments.

Aberdeen Christmas Lectures to Schools

Oceans of Opportunity

The Underwater World of Science and Technology

Thursday 29 November 2018
Aberdeen Exhibition & Conference Centre (AECC) Aberdeen
Reasonable transport costs will be refunded. Register early to secure your place.

Morning session 1000 – 1200 Afternoon sessions 1300 -1500

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.

Seashore to Sea Floor – presented by Macduff Marine Aquarium
Have you ever dipped your toes into the North Sea? It may be cold, but these waters are filled with amazing sea beasties, from tiny swimming plants to large toothy predators. Seashore to Sea floor will take you on a journey from the tidal shores, through the fringing kelp forests and down to the dark sea floor to discover the incredible life that hides beneath the waves.

Energy transition – presented by Equinor
Introduction to energy industry and Equinor. How is oil formed?  Where is it stored? How do we get it out the ground? What do we use it for?  A dilemma, oil and gas resources running out, what is next?

Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV’s) – presented by ROVOP & school pupils who participated in the ROV MATE competition
– What ROV’s are – Why they exist – What they are used for – What jobs there are in the ROV industry

Aberdeen Evening Meeting – New Underwater Tooling and Technologies

Semi-Permanent Subsea Vehicles

Presenter: Steffan Lindsø – Director of Emerging Technology, Europe. Oceaneering

Presentation: Semi-Permanent Subsea Vehicles

Introduction to some of the engineering challenges and decisions that drives the development of the next generation of semi-permanent subsea vehicles. The presentation will use examples from Oceaneering’s development of the FREEDOM vehicle as well as their remote piloted, battery powered E-ROV.

 

Solving Subsea Flow Assurance Challenges In Riser, Pipelines And Flowlines

Presenter:  Donald Ballantyne – Commercial Director,  Paradigm Flow Services

Paradigm Flow specialise in solving subsea flow assurance challenges in riser, pipelines and flowlines.  It has driven the development of new technology & tools to address these issues with creative deployment solutions from existing infrastructure and operational hubs.

Flexi Coil is a new technology that while innovative, has its roots in the principles of proven oilfield equipment and method.  It has been used to gain more production barrels from restricted & blocked pipelines without interruption to flow, decommission subsea pipelines without the need for DSV’s and enable the safe running of pigs and ILI tools.

An overview of the technology will be accompanied by case studies and learnings.  The presentation will also give a brief insight into future developments that push the technology further and offer solutions to production enhancement and subsurface challenges.

 

 

Fibre optic leak detection technologies and applicability in subsea environment

Presenter:Dr. Christpher Bridge – OneSubsea

PresentationFibre optic leak detection technologies and applicability in subsea environment

Automatic leak detection is critical to ensure safe operation of remote equipment. OneSubsea has developed technology to detect leak signals from pipelines and subsea equipment. We will present an overview of the approach to understand the physics of a leak and how we can apply this subsea.

Geo-Intelligence for Coastal Infrastructure

On Thursday 15th November Fugro is hosting a free to attend one-day seminar on coastal infrastructure at our Wallingford office.

Join a team of Fugro experts to learn about how focused site characterisation, innovation and an integrated approach can reduce project risk. A free lunch and tour of one of Europe’s biggest geotechnical laboratories will be provided.

For more information about the event and how to register please see the flyer.

3rd Annual Global Subsea Power Cables Forum for the O&G and Energy Industry 2018

The 3rd Annual Global subsea power cable forum will bring together key experts from Oil and Gas and Energy Industry globally to discuss the current challenges in risks, cost reduction, cable technology, installation, and maintenance and life extension of subsea cables. We will be benchmarking on the best practices with real practical case studies on how to overcome some of the common challenges like defects and anomalies from damage and corrosion on cables, as well as efficient maintenance strategies involving new technological advances for inspection and Indicating Future Application and Performance of Subsea Electrical Cables.
