DIPLOMA IN MARINE SURVEYING OF OFFSHORE UNITSABOUT THIS COURSE
The offshore industry is served by a substantial number of specialist vessels and units which are highly complex but, despite being an international business, the operations and applicable regulations are not always homogenous in approach across the globe. Local, national and international requirements must be observed and complied with, and national legislation may exceed that required by international organisations and have a process of enforcement at national and local government levels. The industry requires continued and improved control methods to be observed either on a voluntary basis by companies or through legislation ratified by national governments.
This unique international course is aimed at anyone wishing to develop a career in the offshore surveying sector, or existing surveyors who wish to expand their knowledge and work successfully in the industry. The course includes coverage of floating offshore units such as MODU and ship conversions such as Floating Production Storage and Offloading units (FPSOs) as well as the support vessels necessary to service this vital industry.
Course highlights:
• Delivered by experts in the field – Course Director: Allan Larsen
• Duration: 12 months
• Delivery: Tutored distance learning
• Award: Diploma
Ideal for:
This course is for anybody seeking expertise in surveying offshore units. Recommended to both new and experienced surveyors.
• Existing ship surveyors looking to expand their expertise to cover the offshore energy sector
• Marine engineers, mechanical engineers and technical superintendents preparing to expand their capability in the offshore sector
