Offshore structural engineering is a specialised area that requires comprehensive knowledge, and this course aims to offer candidates a full picture of up-to-date techniques for offshore structures, including general and steel jackets. It looks at the wider view of the ocean and structural design. You will learn about different types of fixed offshore platform structures and understand designs and loading. The latest recommendations and techniques for analysing and maintaining the structure and the pushover structure analysis are included.
The best configuration and layout must be selected to ensure the platform's stability. We must also consider the construction and repair of existing and mature structures. The sections will cover underwater risk-based inspection and the latest methodology for this. Completing this course will allow you to demonstrate a good understanding of all offshore platforms' design, construction and risk-based maintenance. All required standards and codes are included.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
This course is intended for
Teaching takes place in various settings, including face-to-face in a classroom environment and will ensure that participants can expand their knowledge of the subject and increase their skill set. The course is delivered via various methods by a specialist tutor. This will include PowerPoint presentations, reviewing articles and other relevant materials, group or individual exercises and discussions. There may be some independent work set, and the course will require submitting articles to demonstrate understanding and an end-of-course test. Note-taking is encouraged, and you are welcome to use electronic devices to do this.
The course manual will form part of the learning but will give you references for the future. You are encouraged to ask questions and, if needed, spend time one-on-one with your tutor to review any issues. You can network with peers in similar roles during your time in the classroom.
