| Description |
This project's objective was to organize and
conduct a Underwater Welding Seminar with representatives of MMS, PEMEX,
IMP, and other interested parties. The seminar considered the different
aspects of underwater wet welding of offshore oil and gas platforms typical
of those located in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM). The seminar identified
technical and non-technical barriers that hinder the use of the technology
for fabrication and maintenance of platforms and pipeline in the GOM. The
seminar identified future research areas. Formal presentations and
discussions focused on the current state-of-practice and future
developments. |

The workshop was
held in Del Carmen, Campeche, Mexico on February 26, 1999. |
