Subsea Operations & Technology 2010

The subsea industry continues to expand and new developments are being driven forward in increasingly deeper and harsher waters. Production rates from subsea operations are expected to increase substantially over the next five years - therefore keeping abreast with industry developments, new technological advances and simply understanding the key issues in subsea systems has never been more important.

This year's Subsea Operations & Technology conference in Singapore will provide delegates with critical insight into a number of key issues in this important sector. Safety and reliability is now in the spotlight more than ever - and for good reason. As operators continue to move towards deeper waters the need for greater understanding of safety critical operations in the subsea sector will grow in significance. This year's conference will showcase operational innovation, technology adoption and risk management principles impacting safety and reliability in the Subsea sector.

Topics being covered include:

• Indonesia: Deepwater Projects and Policy, Update on New Safety and Environmental Regulation
• Western Australia Deepwater Activities and Regulatory Approach
• Subsea Safety Systems Applications
• Industry Dialogue: Deepwater IRM - Defining the Critical Success Factors
• Subsea Asset Integrity Management at Chevron
• Use of Spread Spectrum Acoustic Technology for Subsea Control and Monitoring Applications.

Infield Systems will be presenting an overview of the subsea sector on day two of the conference in a presentation titled: Shifting Trends in the Subsea Industry - Asia & Worldwide. Topics are to include;

• Trends and impact of the global energy scenario
• New deepwater opportunities in Asia
• Field developments, timeline and technology needed
• Technical challenges as the industry goes deeper
