I'm a Chemical Engineering student and videos like these really motivate me to do better. It was a great feeling watching you extract first oil from the sedimentary basin you found there. Thank you Shell for sharing this memory.
However, actual chemical Engg in Oil & Gas industry starts after extraction ie at refineries, and then comes petrochemicals production, most of chem engg I know are working there;)
I was proud to help drill these wells on the Proteus. The team of Drilling contractors and service partners worked flawlessly to bring this project to life. Shell is the fore-leader on bringing responsible development to our resources. They are committed to the environment and pioneering the way to a future when we can be less dependant on fossil fuels. Nice to see Luke get a cameo too. lol..
It’s so good to feel that after enormous challenges like weather and time efforts to pursue this project is one of the most successfull fruit of unity among people inside an organization called shell! I love it! To see those smart people taking their jobs more seriously than ever! I hope shell could lend out a project at west philippine sea to help out us filipino to get our oils beneath!

Almost everyday i watch this video, being a project management guy this video gives so much happiness the success for this project. Wish to work in a project like this!😍♥️

With the current weather disasters around the world, real estate that relies on space development is updated to capture solar and wind energy that is exposed to failures and blackouts caused by weather, insects and birds damaging solar farms and turbine blades. Many example videos, working on amazing oil platforms isolated like home confinement, minimizing space and shelter so as to ensure safety and protection from the weather, it is indeed worthy of TEAMATHON (everyone add more running marathons) to finally achieve this huge dream. Congratulations.
As long as people drive, fly, and ship stuff, we need oil. Maybe eventually we will not use oil, but we are probably 30-40 years away from that, just being honest.
I'm all for clean energy but man this stuff is amazing to have come up with something that can harvest oil from thousands of feet down in the ocean just wow!
Clean energy is not at all clean. You just don't see the damage because it happens in China and Russia where the media is not allowed to go and report on the ecological disasters unfolding there. Perhaps you should study the massive environmental damage caused by China in producing solar electric panels. There is still no way to recycle those panels either. The mess of disposing old and damaged solar panels is creating an even bigger haz-mat dumping field due to the toxins involved in your 'clean solar'. Don't get me started on batteries, tens of thousands of pages have been written about how horrible high tech battery manufacturing and disposal is to the planet.
When you work in oil and gas welder kailangan mo pa dumaan sa welding school na provide ng company under go ka muna ng training bago ka mag pipe testing pag pumasa kana qualified kana mag weld depende sa category. Mayron mga qualification pag qualified ka lng sa carbon steell pwde ka mag weld ng carbon either smaw or tig combi.pero gusto mo maging welder ng stainles kailangan qualified ka din maging ss welder at may binibigay sa inyo id card at yun ang tinitingnan ng mga qc/ qa.
Mga isang buwan then jan lang kayo sa welding school d pa kau ma deploy sa site .pag may id na kayo as qualified welder .di po enough ang training ng tesda lang.
Sa tesda ano ba pinaka malaki pipe para sa training .pag sa gas plant malaki yan .mula 1 inch pipe to 64 dia inch. meron pa na abot ng 80 dia kasya na isang sasakyan

Make sure riser are lifted to keep mud moving by mixing. Believe me the current coming out of riser is very strong.Also.stick your hand in there if you can or arm to see if you feel some cuttings of shell from the mud moving through skin with shell cuttings to find and make a moving date.

It is more than fascinating to view all the technology that goes into an oil rig platform for a novice like myself. I now know three people that have worked on them. The third one I love and is at sea in Norway after having completed a year contract in the gulf of Mexico.
I'd be interested in a reality tv show aboard an oil rig. Like Deadliest Catch but less intense, more machine rooms and fluorescent lit conference rooms with coffee.
This is what we go through to extract a room temperature storable fuel with 44 MJ/kg, increadibly powerful stuff. Imagine what we would do for a fuel, if it were similarly regulated and widespread, with 80,000,000MJ/kg. That's the difference between the strong nuclear force and the electromagnetic force. I mean that's 80 Gigajoules per gram. The mind boggles.
@@toby1248 NGL it would be cool to go back to less plastic in some ways but in others it would be terrible.

I think it's been proven that some of larger reserves are in the Gulf Of Mexico. Venezuela has next largest reserves next to Saudi Arabia, and currently their oil operations are in question, perhaps to keep prices high for other reason in the industry. I'll admit this, it's a daunting task now days to recover oil, and let alone worry about prices, they took a picked a prime location to recover oil/gas from, the weather there is decent most of the year as transport to the platform for workers, and from is not a issue so it's strategic location is probably bar none in the world including refinement operations......
