They required in-depth ‘onboard’ training for their operators, and this was provided by one of Robertson Geo Services’ team’s highly experienced logging engineers joining them onboard their drilling vessel for eight days during drilling works on their current Formosa 4 OWF project 18 to 20 kilometres off the coast of Miaoli County in north-western Taiwan. Formosa 4 and neighbouring Formosa 5 will have a potential installed capacity of over 2.6 GW, which will be able to power up to nearly 3 million households upon completion.
By joining the operators onboard, the Robertson Geo Services (RGS) training engineer could give them first-hand training in probe theory, probe and surface equipment maintenance, calibration and logging during a real ground investigation scenario. After collecting PS Logger® and caliper gamma data from three 100m boreholes, our engineer provided training on quality control, processing and presentation of the data acquired.
RGS training engineers’ vast experience of logging in many different scenarios and conditions allows them to provide training tailored to the client’s needs and teach them tips and techniques to enable operators to collect the best quality data and show ways to operate efficiently while keeping downtime to a minimum.
All competent trainees were given a certificate at the end of the course.
