Description
Subsea Industry Standards & System Integration (SISSI) Level 1 course: This course provides an introduction to the subsea industry and covers the fundamental principles, concepts, and terminology related to subsea systems. It focuses on industry standards and guidelines governing subsea operations, including design codes, safety regulations, and environmental considerations. Participants gain a broad understanding of subsea equipment, installation methods, and the importance of system integration for successful subsea projects.
Subsea Industry Standards & System Integration (SISSI) Level 2 course: Building upon the foundation of Level 1, the Level 2 course delves deeper into subsea system integration. It covers advanced topics such as subsea control systems, umbilicals, risers, flowlines, and subsea production systems. Participants learn about the design, installation, and operation of subsea systems, including the integration of various components and interfaces. The course also emphasizes risk management, reliability, and integrity of subsea systems.
Focus on Industry Standards: Both Level 1 and Level 2 courses prioritize industry standards and guidelines. Participants gain knowledge about internationally recognized codes and practices specific to subsea engineering, such as API (American Petroleum Institute) standards, ISO (International Organization for Standardization) requirements, and recommended practices from industry associations like Subsea UK or the Society for Underwater Technology (SUT). Understanding these standards ensures compliance, safety, and efficiency in subsea projects.
Practical Application: The SISSI courses go beyond theoretical knowledge and focus on practical application. Participants engage in case studies, simulations, and hands-on exercises that replicate real-world subsea scenarios. This practical approach enhances understanding of system integration challenges, troubleshooting techniques, and decision-making processes. Participants gain valuable experience in identifying potential issues and implementing solutions to optimize subsea system performance.
Industry-Relevant Certifications: Successful completion of the SISSI Level 1 and Level 2 courses often leads to industry-recognized certifications. These certifications validate participants’ competence in subsea engineering and system integration, enhancing their professional credentials. They serve as a testament to the individual’s knowledge, skills, and commitment to maintaining high standards in the subsea industry.
SISSI Level 1 & Level 2 course explores all the major aspects of processes, technologies and systems involved in subsea oil and gas production, examining the building blocks of subsea engineering, including the key components, Field Development, Wellheads, Xmas Trees and Manifolds, Pipelines, Flowlines and Risers, Subsea Control Systems, Umbilicals and Equipments, New Technologies,Governing Bodies, Subsea Industry Standards, Most Frequently Applied Standards, Other useful Standards and Commonly used Devivatives, Foundations for Subsea Standards, Intervention Systems Standards, Subsea Qualification Standards, Reliability Standards, Application of Subsea Standards, Standard Development & Management and more.
