Winners of 2017 ‘Australian Subsea Industry Awards’
The Subsea Energy Australia Industry awards winners have been officially announced.
Subsea Energy Australia (SEA), held its annual ‘Australian Subsea Industry Awards’ ceremony last Friday, July 28, in Perth.
Ashley Duncan, SEA board member and business development manager at TechnipFMC, welcomed the 130 guests and said: “It is through the tenacity and determination of our industry’s workforce that during the past five decades we have pushed the boundaries of technology to meet the challenges to deliver some of the largest and most challenging projects in the world. Our 2017 Awards highlight and share the examples of success in the last year, inspiring our drive for improvement in the future.
“We want to commend those who have been breaking down barriers and developing techniques, which are extending the life of our industry, and hope that this inspires the continued development that is critical to our future.”
This year’s nominees were judged by Hosi Sabavala, technology & innovation manager – Upstream at Woodside Energy, Jill Stajduhar, general manager Industry Research and Innovation at NERA and Brian Guest, subsea engineer – Australia Production Unit at BHP Billiton.
SEA chairman, Marius Martens, said: “The subsea sector makes a significant contribution to our State’s economy, and it’s forecast to grow significantly in the near future. In order for our industry to sustain itself and to grow, it is essential we improve industry collaboration.

And it is through exports that we can increase our revenue.”
