With a booming offshore oil and gas sector in South East Asia, the Subsea Operations and Technology 2010 summit in Singapore this 27 – 28 September will look at subsea challenges and solutions for the oil and gas, EPC, logistics and marine contractor markets.

The offshore oil industry has been driven by the introduction of new technologies since its inception. The capital expenditures for subsea have been steadily increasing since 2008 and this trend will continue for the forseeable future.

The last decade has witnessed pioneering feats in subsea technology from Statoil’s Heidrun project in the North Sea, BHP Billiton’s Neptune, Petrobras Roncador field, Total’s Girassol in Angola and Shell Malampaya in the Philippines.

Subsea Challenge: Is Technology Keeping Pace With Deepwater Developments?

Safety and reliability are in the spotlight, and not without reason. The continued move into deepwater projects is posing new and increased challenges.

Post the Deepwater Horizon incident, BP has pointed out an urgent need to develop a more effective deepwater subsea intervention capability, and a need to ensure that companies work with contractors in ways that mean risks are fully understood and managed.

With 8 international case studies, Subsea Operations and Technology 2010 will showcase operational innovation, technology adoption and risk management principles impacting safety and reliability.

Join our speaker panel of top industry experts from NOCs, IOCs and Field Operators as they discuss specific operational, maintenance and technology solutions required for subsea field development in the Asian region.

With Keynote Addresses from the Government of Western Australia Department of Mines and Petroleum and BP Migas (Executive Agency for Upstream Oil & Gas Activities, The Republic of Indonesia), Subsea Operations and Technology 2010 will focus on crucial issues and challenges that the industry faces as it goes deeper, latest technological advances, cost and quality of subsea equipment, IRM, subsea intervention and processing & boosting.

The conference also features a Post Conference Workshop on “Optimising Lifecycle of Flexible Risers and Flowlines”, which will be held on 29 September 2010. A crucial component for managing flow assurance and overall subsea operations, risers and flowlines are the nerve centre of a field. This workshop will take you through the essential technical and operational benchmarks critical for optimising their performance.
