Course Introduction
Subsea Integrity Management (SSIM) is essential to ensuring the continued safety, operability, and environmental compliance of offshore oil and gas infrastructure. This comprehensive 5-day course equips integrity engineers, inspectors, and offshore asset managers with the technical knowledge, regulatory understanding, and practical tools to effectively manage the integrity of subsea systems, including pipelines, risers, umbilicals, structures, and wellheads.
Course Objectives
Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:
- Understand the life cycle of subsea systems and their degradation mechanisms
- Apply risk-based methodologies to monitor and manage subsea integrity
- Implement inspection, monitoring, and maintenance (IM&M) strategies
- Interpret and apply international standards and regulations (ISO 13628, DNV, API)
- Develop, review, and audit Subsea Integrity Management Systems (SSIMS)
Key Benefits of Attending
