Current Scope

The SEAR JIP is currently on its Phase 8 (2021)

The scope of work consists of:

1. Continuing to populate SEAR reliability database, which allows assessment of operators’ equipment performance and comparison of vendors’ performance for equipment installed in Australian waters.

2. Facilitating ‘lessons learned’ forums , where operators share experience about equipment performance. All learning are captured on the SEAR cloud-based reliability database.

3. Delivering the Transforming Australia Subsea Equipment Reliability (TASER) testing program to evaluate performance of new technologies to prevent calcareous deposition and marine growth on subsea hardware.

4. Investigating the possible cause(s) of oil & gas subsea controls umbilical gassing and fluid migration sources of gases and fluids.
