It will be held in Houston on Oc- tober 22-26, 1973. In four and one-half days, the seminar covers everything from theory, selection, and operation of offshore drilling, completion, and production equipment to the new- est techniques for drilling in deep- er and more hostile waters. Through the seminars, participants gain, in a short period, a knowledge of the industry which could other- wise take months or years of ex- posure to obtain. The aim of the seminar is to up- date experienced personnel and train new men to combat the short- age of qualified personnel on drill- ing rigs today. Seminar instructors use practical approaches, case his- tories, scale models, slide presenta- tions, and new design research to quickly and efficiently train partici- pants in the latest offshore drilling technology. Each instructor is highly experienced, and represents a vital segment of the offshore in- dustry. The seminar focuses on offshore safety, drilling unit stability, cer- tification, insurance, well testing, and blowouts. For equipment and techniques, the instructors cover mooring systems and positioning, marine risers, drilling motion com- pensation, offshore drill string, and subsea wellhead and production equipment. Along with the instruction, par- ticipants receive a personal manual containing all of the seminar pres- entations, charts, and illustrations to use as future reference. Interactive dialogue between in- structors and participants is also a unique aspect of the ETA Off- shore Seminar. The seminar at- tendance is limited to 30 qualified applicants to allow for questions, discussion, and exchange of new ideas. ETA Offshore Seminars, Inc. will also sponsor seminars for the offshore industry in Stavanger, Norway, and in London, England, in late November or early Decem- ber.
