engineering problem solving
structural specifications
I executed casing of the well (which
was drilled and grouted) that goes
beyond the conductor penetration
depth and takes the remaining load
I performed different analysis that
includes Inplace Analysis, Seismic
analysis, and Ship Impact Analysis of
the existing environment of the
platform

PE2.2 Fluent application of
engineering techniques, tools and
resources
I took tough decisions while
reviewing the vendor documents
considering the budget and quality of
the resources being made available
for the delivery of the project
I drive the conductor to a desired
depth (driving beyond this would not
feasible either because of the
presence of a rock layer or because it
causes fatigue damage to the
conductors)
I developed the plan to be followed
by everyone and make sure that the
project is being delivered within the
estimated time

update and growth under the
structural depart using the different
spreadsheets

I considered the survey produced by
the geotechnical team about the soil
and delivered the further operations
accordingly

approaches to the conduct and
management of engineering
projects
I was appointed in the structural
department and the entire team has
the responsibility to improve and
develop the new in-house
spreadsheets and guidance related to
the design of the handling devices
I analysed the existing configuration
of dual well that was a 42” x 1.5”
conductor containing 2 nos of 18” x
0.5” casings
I identified the technical problems
those could possibly have influenced
the project and managed them
accordingly that helped in delivering
the project as per the expectation

PE3 ENGINEERING APPLICATION ABILITY
PE3.1 Ethical conduct and
professional accountability
I successfully led material handling
design team in the project while
continuously interfacing with team
located in Mumbai office
identified that the borehole diameter
below the conductor was also 38”.
This 38” has to hold 2 nos of 18”

casings. So, the gap left was 38” –
2*18” = 2”
I conducted several ‘load shedding’
discussions with other disciplines

PE3.2 Effective oral and written
communication in professional
and lay domains
I performed blast analysis considering
this approach. After 60% progress of
the project, there were some changes
in the platform layout
I identified that the strength of
conductors was the major problem in
this project. I identified fatigue
damage calculations, the conductor
could not be driven beyond 65m
I decided to post-install (install them
after the deck has been installed)
certain equipment. But still, we could
not bring it down to less than 700 MT

PE3.3 Creative innovative and
proactive demeanour
I identified that the actual blast
pressure was 1.05 barg. However, the
maximum blast pressure has
increased to 1.1 barg after this change
I informed that these were the weak
points and being overstressed
I proposed the use of GRP grating
instead of steel grating as they are
lighter. This helped us to bring down
the weight to less than 700 MT

I identified there was deficiency in
the coordination among the different

users and thus, it was influencing the
overall execution of the team
I found that in this configuration was
that there was no enough annulus gap
(to fill the grout) between borehole
and the casing
I managed them accordingly in
manner to meet the expected outcome
and production from the delivered
project

PE3.5 Orderly management of
self, and professional conduct
I checked the primary beams
(1500mm and 1000mm deep plate
girders) since they were already
fabricated and ensured that they were
safe even with the higher loads
I performed a study to see the
feasibility of reducing loads on the
foundation
I identified that the weight constraint
is crossing the limits and it could
possibly impact the entire project

and team leadership
I approached the problem
methodically. I discussed with the
safety engineer for considering his
response and thereafter, I performed
the dynamic and time-history analysis
of each deck level to determine the
actual DAF
I proposed the idea of using high
