Offshore oil and gas is one of the fastest-growing sectors of the global energy industry. It is also one of the fastest-changing, with new technologies, vessel designs and strategies needed to contend with the deeper waters and more challenging operating environments demanded by the search for, and exploration of, new gas and oil fields.

That's why we have responded to market demand and created this new Fundamentals of Offshore Field Development course. It explains in detail the stages involved in offshore oil and gas production and the vessels supporting it, from exploration and surveying to drilling, construction and supply.

The only course on this subject delivered by distance learning - education on your terms.

Acquire indispensable knowledge to help you get to grips with this burgeoning sector:

•          Appreciate the importance of offshore exploration and production in the global petroleum context

•          Understand the technical elements of searching and drilling for oil and gas

•          Describe the phases, planning and management of subsea projects

•          Analyse the design and operations of the diverse vessels supporting offshore production and the export of oil and gas

•          Develop up-to-date knowledge of the safety, environmental and contractual issues shaping the industry

Delivered over 12 weeks, this is your complete part-time study course to managing the operations and vessels involved in developing oil and gas fields.

Delivered by part-time online distance education, you can study where, when, and at the best speed for you, taking advantage of the detailed written study modules, online videos and tutorial forums run by our expert course director, John Preedy. John has over 40 years experience in research, engineering production and instruction including 28 years with BP and offshore oil and gas production.
