Hello ,
I would like to share an incident that happened recently in our rig.
Facts Pressure Testing of
Shaffer BOP to 15000 psi ongoing. When pressure reached 4700 psi the lower
single ram door was blown off the BOP. Causes It was found that the door
locking mechanism was not engaged, due to human error. Corrective
measures/learnings
• Improve safety culture on
board
• Improve procedures for
maintenance and operation of BOP
• Crew training including OJTs
The project consists of developing new computational and modeling tools to address solid-multiphase fluid coupled problems using Isogeometric Analysis.
1-year contract. Renewable one more year
Annual gross allowance: From 25000 to 30000 Eur depending on the candidate's qualifications.
Ergonomics is the scientific discipline concerned with the understanding of interactions among humans and other elements of a system, and the profession that applies theory, principles, data and methods to design in order to optimize human well-being and overall system performance.

ALARP (As Low as Reasonably Practical) principle is one of the key techniques used to demonstrate application of Safety Management System on a Project /Worksite. It requires that hazards to personnel and the environment are identified, risks from these hazards are understood and that all reasonably practicable steps are taken to minimise the identified risks. It is similar to Best Available Technique which is applied to minimise environmental impacts from activity, product or services.
This position will support all activities in a SEM/microscopy lab including sample preparation, inspection, documentation, and elemental analysis by SEM-EDS as well as managing the operation of the lab. The candidate may be required to teach courses in related areas.
Hello to anyone reading this post. I have currently finished my PhD from Mines ParisTech in France involving the computational modelling of crack growth in Nickel base single crystal superalloys. I am presently looking for a Post doctoral position in Germany (Ideally in Munich/Stuttgart area). If you have any open position, please let me know.
