RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES IN SUBPRO AND DEPLOYMENT OF FUTURE KNOWLEDGE
What opportunities do you see as a PhD candidate in SUBPRO?
“Being a PhD student in SUBPRO has given me the opportunity to delve into the field of subsea technology.
Although the main topic of my PhD is quite narrow, as PhD topics often are, the SUBPRO project provides us
with a broader understanding of the background and status of the new and exciting subsea technology field
through lectures, company excursions and colloquiums.”
What kind of work do think could be relevant for deploying the knowledge from your PhD project?
“The knowledge accumulated through my PhD period could be relevant for further research into subsea oil
and water separation, especially working towards the envisioned Subsea Factory and All Subsea concepts.”
