SUMMARY:After graduating in 1980 in with a BSc (Hons) in Civil Engineering from Manchester University and an MSc in 1982 in Engineering Geology from Durham University, Dr. Golightly worked for some years in the UK for civil engineering consultants Ove Arup and Partners in civil and structural engineering related geotechnical investigation and design. This was followed by three years as a Research Assistant at Bradford University investigating the fundamental properties of calcareous sands, in the context of offshore pile design, for which he was awarded a PhD in 1989. Following this he completed a British Royal Society Post-Doctoral EC Science Fellowship, in 1989 and 1990, at the French Petroleum Institute in Paris and other research institutions in France, where he continued his work on calcareous sands. After a further two year period in civil engineering consultancy in the UK, he joined Fugro Engineers BV in The Netherlands in early 1992 as a Senior Geotechnical Engineer and Team Leader. In this capacity he worked worldwide on a variety of projects offshore, nearshore and on land, predominantly on projects outside Europe.

In July 1997 he joined BP in the UK as a geotechnical engineer and was part of the Shared Petrotechnical Resource “New Developments” team based in West London. Most of this period was spent project-managing a major study into the risk to offshore facilities from major “geohazards” (mud volcanoes, faulting, slope instability) in the South Caspian, and organising/supervising offshore geotechnical investigations for pipeline and platform locations on behalf of the Azerbaijan International Operating Company, (a consortium of eleven oil companies) of which BP is a major part.

joined SAGE SA/NV in Brussels in September 1999 as Senior Geotechnical Engineer. SAGE merged with RACAL Survey in December 2000 to become Thales Geosolutions. In February 2003 he joined Shell Global Solutions in The Hague as Senior Geotechnical and Seismic Engineer, responsible for downstream geotechnical and seismic design on a variety of LNG, GTL and other projects. In October 2005 he started working as an independent consultant based near Brussels, for a variety of clients in the oil and gas and renewables sectors, on both offshore and onshore projects.

Since the Summer of 2010 Dr. Golightly has focused entirely upon offshore renewable work and has since competed foundation design Technical Due Diligence on a number of German projects, including Borkum West 2, GlobalTech 1, Meerwind, MEG-1 and others. He has carried out work on a number of UK Round 3 sites for various clients, including preliminary foundation design reviews and scour assessment and mitigation on two sites. During 2011 he worked for EDP Renovaveis as an external consultant, managing desk studies and defining preliminary feasibility foundation design engineering work with external consultants. He has recently carried out Investigations into the current availability of Gravity Base Structures [GBS], visiting and reporting on the 4 European designers who are considered to have GBS designs in place which are sufficiently advanced technically and practically as well as economically viable,

During 2012 consultancy work will continue to focus on offshore wind and tidal projects. Clients will include developers, consultants, certification agencies, insurance underwriters and govt. funded/private research organisations. Development work on a hybrid GBS offshore foundation solution specifically targeted at offshore wind turbine and tidal scheme foundation structure will continue.

OFFSHORE:Geohazards, offshore geotechnical specifications/SoW definition, integrated site investigations, seismic design of offshore structures, wind turbine foundation design, suction caisson design and installation, jack-up rig installation, drag and suction anchor design, gravity base structure foundations, pipeline/cable installation, pipeline route selection and surveys; pile design in sands; new design methods for piles in clay; the fundamental micro/macro structures of clays; properties of calcareous soils and rocks; “unusual” offshore/deepwater soils.

ONSHORE:Site selection and foundation design for LNG/Gas To Liquids/terminal facilities; GIS based pipeline route terrain, seismic and geohazard evaluation and assessment; seismic design of onshore oil and gas structures; residual tropical soils; ground improvement; in-situ cone and pressuremeter testing; advanced geotechnical laboratory testing; geotechnical earthquake analysis; seismic liquefaction.
