  Summer Trainee

  STTP programme is a summer team work project. I collaborated with 10 students with diverse backgrouds. This summer porgram aims to develop an autonomous production system for Tordis field, which is the world's first full-scale seabed facility. I am responsible for the conceptual design of autonomous sea cargo modules. This conceptual design includes the design of propulsion system, buoyancy system, connections, launch and recovery system and the selection of hull material. This is a advanced programme so my team and I made a lot of creative ideas together. Finally we submitted a report with 671 pages and were given an outstanding awards. Show less
