The symposium addresses the latest trends in deep water subsea engineering, and in particular addressing applications of space technology for remote control of deep water operations.
Deepwater Subsea and Space technologies have a lot in common as the technology barriers are related to colder, harsher and more remote environments. Still Competitive technology has to be “first time right”, where stakes are so high that failure is not an option. The offshore oil and gas industry is presently facing new challenges in various areas like:
• Overcoming corrosive atmospheres, extreme temperatures and high mechanical loading
• Communication with subsea equipment over a longer distance
• The need for sophisticated robotics
Learn how the aerospace industry and subsea industry face similar challenges and can help each other. During the symposium there will also be the award for the best master thesis in Offshore Engineering.
