Procurement Engineer Training on Offshore Drilling Equipment

Specialized Certification for Oil & Gas Professionals Working with Offshore Procurement Projects

Procurement of offshore drilling equipment is complex, high-stakes, and governed by strict technical, financial, and safety protocols. Pertecnica Engineering offers a certification training program designed to build procurement competence for offshore rig packages, subsea systems, and well-intervention equipment—crucial for upstream oil & gas and offshore EPC projects.

Our course goes beyond theoretical learning to include real-world case studies, vendor documentation formats, inspection checklists, and regulatory standards like API, ABS, DNV, ISO, and IMCA.

  • Insurance, Dry Nitrogen Packaging, Shockproof crating

  • Final Documentation: Bill of Lading, Packing List, Sea Fastening Report

6. Commercial Aspects and Contract Clauses

  • INCOTERMS for offshore cargo: DAP Offshore, CIF, FOB Shipyard

  • LD clauses for equipment failure or offshore downtime

  • AMC contracts, service response guarantees, spares inventory planning

  • Warranty and replacement clause structuring for critical systems

Who Should Enroll

  • Procurement Engineers and SCM professionals in offshore O&G projects

  • Offshore EPC Contract Managers and Estimators

  • Tendering Engineers for offshore packages

  • Inspection Engineers and Third-Party Auditors

  • Oilfield Equipment Vendors and Service Providers

  • Mechanical, Marine, and Petroleum Engineers seeking offshore careers


Why This Course Is Important

Offshore drilling equipment procurement involves:

  • Multi-million-dollar contract values

  • High-risk environments requiring uncompromised safety compliance

  • Custom-built equipment with long fabrication and delivery cycles

  • Stringent classification and international marine regulations

  • Complex technical bid evaluations and logistics planning

A single delay, non-compliance, or specification error can lead to huge losses or legal issues. This course minimizes such risks and equips professionals to take control of offshore project procurement from pre-bid to commissioning.
