Conferences

Wed, 09 Jun 2010 03:55:37 GMT

International Conference on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering Background The activities of the OMAE Division started in the form of an annual conference. The first symposium was affiliated with the Energy Resources Technology Conference & Exhibition (ETCE), held in February 1982 in New Orleans. With time, the symposium rapidly grew into a major technical conference in offshore and arctic engineering with broad international support. Currently, the main event of the OOAE Division is the annual international conference, which is held in venues around the world. The first OMAE conference held outside North America was in Tokyo in 1986, and it was a huge success. Some of the international sites for previous conferences include The Hague, Netherlands; Stavanger, Norway; Glasgow, Scotland; Copenhagen, Denmark; Lisbon, Portugal, and Hamburg, Germany. In North America, New Orleans, Houston, Dallas, Calgary, and Vancouver, for example, have hosted OMAE conferences (for a complete...

Offshore Technology Symposium

Tue, 08 Jun 2010 21:39:50 GMT

Background The offshore industry has been very active recently in deep waters, where oil & gas resources are abundant. Innovations and industry know-hows have bloomed over the last few decades. Fixed platforms reach multiple thousand feet of water depths using compliant towers, Spars and TLPs have allowed dry trees in up to 5000 feet, Drill ships are stationed for weeks on DP, and we currently drill in over 10,000 feet of water depths. Areas of activities have increased as well! The North sea and the gulf of Mexico are no longer the epicenter of offshore activities. Oil reserves are now coming significantly online from West Africa and Brazil, while gas from Australia and Qatar is being transporter worldwide in tankers that have tripled their capacity over the past decades. The offshore industry's move into the deeper waters has created a need for innovation. We are however only at the forefront of the challenges. In the next decades, we will be active in harsher environments,...
