MMI Engineering (MMI) is featured in an article entitled "Improving Passive Fire Protection Systems" in Offshore Engineer magazine on pages 26-27 in the April 2017 edition.
The Hydrocarbon Passive Fire Protection Network (PFPNet) will be hosting an introductory meeting at the Texas Training and Conference Centers in Houston, Texas from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Wednesday February 15, 2017.
Simon Thurlbeck (England) will present at the International Fire and Explosion Hazard Management Conference at the Corinthia Hotel on St. Georges Bay, Malta from 10:30am-11:00am on November 4, 2016.
Geosyntec undertook a quantitative risk assessment (QRA) for the Cidade de Paraty Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel, which will operate in the Lula oil field. The Lula oil field, which is the largest hydrocarbon find in the world since the Kazakh Kashagan discovery in 2000, is located in the Santos Basin, 250km south of Rio de Janeiro. It is estimated to hold five to eight billion barrels of oil equivalent. Due to the size of the field and the water depth, which in areas is in excess of 2000m, it will be developed using a number of FPSOs.
Geosyntec prepared the quantitative risk assessment (QRA) for the Browse liquified natural gas (LNG) offshore central processing facility (CPF) during the front-end engineering design (FEED) stage of this multi-billion dollar project.
Planned sewage improvements at Weston-Super Mare included a new, four-lane activated sludge plant.
Severn Trent Water commissioned Geosyntec to investigate the optimal configuration of the Aqua Turbo aerators at the Melton Mowbray Sewage Treatment Works. These units aerated the mixed liquors using a screw impeller that drew up and impinged the fluid onto a flat plate above the water surface, creating a spray.
Upton Scudamore Water Treatment Works (WTW) is a groundwater treatment works located near Warminster in Wiltshire. The works has a maximum daily output of 15Ml/d, and the water can supply over 100,000 customers in the surrounding area. Upton Scudamore WTW is supplied with raw water from three distinct sources; two from ground water springs (9 Ml/d total) and another from boreholes (6 Ml/d). Tailored treatment processes are required for the springs (chlorine disinfection only) and boreholes (iron oxidation, then filtration and chlorine disinfection).
An underground construction information management system (UCIMS) was developed by itmsoil to monitor construction data from the new east-west rail link across London known as the Crossrail. The Crossrail project construction works, Europe's biggest construction project with projected costs of £15.9 billion, include underground development, comprising shafts, tunnels, and portals that extend beneath the already congested London underground. Given the urban environment in which the tunneling and other construction activities are occurring, monitoring of the construction works and the impact on adjacent underground and aboveground structures was a key activity for the project management and engineering teams. The UCIMS monitors tens of thousands of real-time geotechnical instruments and structural sensors as well as overall construction progress. In addition to performance monitoring of a host of construction activities, the UCIMS also tracks the progress and performance of Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs). The UCIMS was designed to provide real-time access for all stakeholders to the construction and instrumentation data, and it required an intuitive, map-based user interface, showing progress and data locations relative to the surface features and other spatial information.
