Objectives

Enable the student to understand, characterize, evaluate resistance, powering and basic hydrodynamic behaviour of advance marine vehicle including warship and submarine

Syllabus

• An introduction in advanced marine vehicle (AMV) types.
• The basic principles of the different types of advanced marine vehicles will be explained, supported by data of recently build vessels.
• Hydrodynamic aspects, the contradiction between resistance and propulsion and on the other hand ships movements will be dealt with.
• Design strategies in the design of advanced marine vehicles.
• Several types of propulsion systems such as but not limited to water jets, cavitating and non cavitating propellers.
• Structural Aspects of AMVs
• An introduction to warship and Submarines
• Hydrostatic and hydrodynamic aspects of warship and Submarine.

Objectives

The course aims to introduce the post-graduate students the basics of oil and gas production systems which will mainly include artificial pumping systems for petroleum production and designing of surface production operations related to storage and processing of reservoir fluids.
The course aims to bridge knowledge gap of the students between Drilling and Well Completions and the Petroleum Production Operations.

Syllabus
