Project Number 326
Date of Summary February 3, 2005
Subject Underwater Welding Workshop
Performing Activity Colorado School of Mines
Principal Investigator Dr. Steven Liu
Contracting Agency Minerals Management Service
Estimated Completion Completed
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.
Progress The workshop was held in Del Carmen, Campeche, Mexico on February 26, 1999.
