I don’t know how I managed to miss this. The IEM family day is happening this Sunday, 25th July 2010.
I’ll be around, signing autographs for those who recognize me. Don’t expect my John Hancock to sell well on eBay, or lelong. com.my. I suppose I could get impromptu dunked if anyone wants to pay high enough… contact the organisers, ask to dunk Councilman Wata.

One key element of an offshore oil & gas field development project is to demonstrate inherently safe design principles are adopted as part of the engineer design. A safety case lifecycle approach would ensure that the potential Major Accident Events (MAE) are identified, assessed and managed through the design process in order to demonstrate that risks have been reduced to As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP) and within the required tolerable limits.

I recently discovered tha Kinokunya KLCC has a whole rack dedicated to oil & gas topics. ‘Course, I would prefer if you bought the above selection from my site, but I value your continued education more than profit. Actually, I prefer it the other way round, so purchase stuff from me.
This selection focuses on the non-engineers among you. Try out Oil & Gas Production in Nontechnical Language, The Petroleum Industry: A Nontechnical Guide, and Petroleum Refining in Nontechnical Language, Fourth Edition. I haven’t used these books before, but they seem quite good.
