This is a shout out for the IEM. My Technical Division will be having a talk on the 24th August, 2013. It’ll be at 9:00 am (makan-makan at 8:30) at Wisma IEM.
As demand for oil escalates and resources from the relatively easy onshore and shallow water fields becomes relentlessly depleted, oil companies are compelled to focus on more remote, complicated and deeper water reserves. This represents whole new technological challenges. Subsea production technologies have now come to the fore to be an enabler while contributing towards increased hydrocarbon recovery from this highly challenging environment. In recent years too, more and more equipment began to populate the seabed, thus giving birth to the ‘subsea factory’ vision. This presentation seek to provide an overview of some of the subsea processing technologies that made this transition from surface to the deep seabed possible, and giving a glimpse of how the subsea factory of the future may look like.
Lots of words. Further elaboration will be provided by Rudisham (Rudi) Marjohan:
Rudisham (Rudi) Marjohan graduated as a Mining Engineer from the Technical University of Nova Scotia, Canada in 1993 with a minor in Petroleum Engineering. He has served in both mining, and oil and gas industries, spending considerable amount of time in exploration and drilling activities in various capacities and responsibilities. In 2008, a change of perspective saw his involvement in subsea production systems with Framo Engineering, a Schlumberger company and a recognized leader in the manufacture and supply of multiphase pumps and subsea systems. Framo Engineering is now part of OneSubsea, a 60-40 collaboration between Cameron and Schlumberger. Rudi is now based in Kuala Lumpur and is OneSubsea’s Asia Sales Manager for Pumps and Subsea Processing Systems
