Subsea developments represent a significant percentage of world-wide
offshore oil and gas production. This
contribution is likely to increase with the move into greater water
depths and the continued exploitation of marginal fields.
Subsea incidents, which occur too frequently and are largely
avoidable, tend to be costly due to maintenance intervention. There are
many related 'lessons learnt',
available throughout the global subsea industry,
that, if shared, could potentially reduce the number of subsea
incidents. The intention of SIREN is to communicate knowledge so as to
avoid the repetition of mistakes and to encourage the adoption of best
practice. The potential savings – in terms of
cost, the reduced number of health & safety and environmental incidents,
and reputation protection – are incalculable. |
