Course

Offshore Materials Technology (MSK500)

To harvest oil and gas offshore call for complicated installations with a large number of differnt components. Materials with differnt properties have been used. We will introduce some of these materials, inform about their properties and relate it to fundamental knowledge, e.g. microstructure.
