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

This is a shout out for the IEM. My Technical Division will hosting the above seminar on the 20th August, 2103.
The primary objectives of Engineering Finance are to Create Cost Conscious Global Professionals. Engineering Finance is a sub-set of Engineering using financial methodology to ensure the long-term viability and sustainability of a project.
The course will delve on:
- Definition and concept of Engineering Finance.
- Fundamental principles of the engineering finance methodology e.g. “Bridging” of “Engineering” with “Finance”, MAL Cost Efficiency Model, Economic Efficiency vs. Engineering Efficiency, Critical Component Analysis etc.
- Applications of Engineering Finance – using actual cases to illustrate the uses of EF methodology in market positioning, product-technology option matrix etc.
The seminar will be led by Ir. Prof. Madya Dr Maulud Abdul Latif. He obtained his Engineering Doctorate (EngD) in Engineering Finance at the UTM/University of Warwick. He also holds an MBA Finance from the University of Queensland Business School, a B. Sc. (Hons) Mining Engineering from the University of Wales and a Diploma in Mechanical Eng. from Universiti Technologi Malaysia. In addition, he holds the Dredgemaster Certificate of Competency and is a member of the Board of Professional Engineers, Institute of Engineers and Institute of Mineral Engineers.

This is a shout out for the IEM. My Technical Division will be having a talk on 8th June 2013. It’ll be at 9:00 am (makan-makan at 8:30) at Wisma IEM. We do have a lift, so no excuse. I have bad knees, and still manage to crawl up 2 flights.
With rapid development in Selangor/Wilayah Persekutuan there is now a need to build houses, factories and other structures in areas where it was not a choice before such as hilly areas, areas where there are outcrops, uneven and shallow bedrocks where there are needs for use of explosives. Explosives are used to level the foundations, to blast and excavate rock below ground for parking lots and stable foundation for high-rise building. However, the use of explosives without proper techniques may cause serious problems of fly rock, high ground vibration and air blast, which can be damaging. The talk will cover the legal and administrative requirements, technical requirement and blasting techniques as practiced in Selangor / Wilayah Persekutuan. Should be useful to engineers who are involved or likely to get involved as project managers/supervisors where blasting works is involved.
The above will be presented by Ir. Tony Chew. He is now Deputy Director of Minerals and Geosciences Department of Malaysia (Mines and Quarry) Selangor / Wilayah Persekutuan. He graduated in 1999 from USM with a degree in Mineral Resources Engineering and MBA from University Malaysia Sabah in 2005. He served in Sabah from 2000-2010 and now in Selangor in the same section where he oversees mining and quarry operation including blasting work. He is also involved in overseeing blasting activities at construction site to ensure the blasting work is carried out according to the safety and environmental requirements.
