INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SHIP & OFFSHORE TECHNOLOGY 2008 - VESSELS FOR DEEP & ULTRA DEEPWATER OPERATIONS
16 - 17 October 2008, Busan, Korea. Second Notice & Call for Papers
Shallow water oil and gas production is in long term decline. Much of the undiscovered, economically recoverable oil and gas reserves are believed to lie in the deepwater ocean basins of the Gulf of Mexico, offshore West Africa, Brazil, Northern Europe, Western Australia and Southeast. There has been a significant boom in the entire deepwater exploration and drilling industry over the last few years. Studies indicate that deepwater fields now account for more than 25% of Operator investment in offshore facilities and this may increase to over 40% by the end of the decade.
The development of deepwater fields presents significant technical and commercial challenges. They are often in remote locations far from existing infrastructures and in inhospitable environments. The exploration and development of these field needs a whole range of vessels (survey, drilling units, supply ships, anchor handling vessels, floating production units, etc) with greater durability, reliability, large storage and greater handling and lifting capabilities.
RINA invites papers on all aspects of the design and operation of vessels associated with deep and ultra deepwater oil and gas exploration and field development, including the following topics:
• Experience on specific design & construction projects • Project management and integration • Environmental design criteria and loading • Structural integrity and reliability • Deepwater construction, installation and maintenance • Mooring systems and dynamic positioning • Safety & risk evaluation
I would like to offer a paper and attach a synopsis of no more than 250 words I wish to receive details on exhibition space and sponsorship opportunities I would like to receive a full programme brochure and registration form
