Mike Ryan is research faculty at the Georgia Institute of Technology's Center for Education Integrating Science, Mathematics and Computing (CEISMC). Mike has expertise in the design and use of projectbased learning (PBL) to facilitate standards-based learning.-Mike is the Co-PI for the NSF-funded project Science Learning Integrating Design, Engineering and Robotics (SLIDER), overseeing curriculum design, teacher learning and research strategy. The project investigates the integration of engineering in science classes to facilitate physics learning.-Mike is senior personnel for another NSF project, AMP-IT-UP, that is studying STEM integration. He designs curriculum, PD, and strategy for the project.-Mike is active in designing and researching online learning courses in PBL for educators. Mike has also previously taught secondary science in public schools. Mr. Jeffrey H Rosen, Georgia Institute of TechnologyAfter 14 years in the middle and high school math and engineering classroom where Mr. Rosen was working on the integration of engineering and robotics into the teaching of the core curricula classrooms. He has now been at Georgia Tech's CEISMC for the past 8 years working on curriculum development and research on authentic STEM instruction and directing the state's FIRST LEGO League competition program. Mr. Rosen has authored or co-authored papers and book chapters that address issues of underrepresented populations participation in engineering programs and the integration of robotics and engineering into classroom instruction. Jayma Koval, Georgia Institute of TechnologyJayma Koval is a Teacher in Residence at Georgia Tech's Center for Education Integrating Science, Mathematics and Computing (CEISMC). In this role she has developed middle school science curriculum and assessments for NSF funded projects. Previously, Jayma was a middle school science teacher for 10 years and coordinator of her school's Science Olympiad team. Sabrina Grossman, CEISMC: Georgia TechI am currently a Program Director in Science Education at Georgia Tech's Center for Education Integrating Science, Mathematics, and Computing (CEISMC), which is a K-12 STEM outreach center for the university. I am working on several exciting projects including working with the STEM Incubator as Problem Based Learning Specialist and teaching an online course in Project-Based Inquiry Learning. I also work on the SLIDER team developing curriculum to teach physical science with robotics and designing teacher materials to support the implementation of that curriculum. Lastly, I work on the AMP-IT-UP project, which is a NSF Foundation Math and Science Partnership to promote workforce development and to identify and cultivate the next generation of creative STEM innovators. Through my participation in this project, I assist in writing middle school science modules and supporting teachers in their implementation. The Science Learning Integrating Design, Engineering and Robotics (SLIDER) project at the Georgia Institute of Technology is in the 5 th year of devel...
Installation of a fiber optic cable between Newfoundland and offshore installations on the Grand Banks has enabled implementation of digital technologies which can improve safety, reliability, and profitability of offshore operations. An overview of the fiber optic infrastructure and recently established Onshore Support & Control Center (OSCC) is presented along with technical, organizational, and operational considerations for its design. To date, use of the OSCC has improved operator training, allowed shifting of offshore roles to onshore, and enhanced support of and collaboration with offshore operations. In order to implement future digital technology opportunities and capture additional benefits, a digital roadmap has been developed along with associated organizational changes to manage implementation.
The Liza Phase 1 development project features the Liza Destiny Floating Production, Storage, and Offloading (FPSO) vessel, moored 190 km offshore Guyana in 1,743 m (5,719 ft) of water, and four subsea drill centers supporting 17 wells. Not only was this a Greenfield development that required an integrated team to prepare for Operations; it was also located in a New Frontier that required development of logistics and marine infrastructure to support multi drillship and FPSO operations in challenging metocean and tidal conditions. In addition, early operations and production testing was further complicated by the COVID-19 pandemic and safety protocols put in place to keep the workforce safe. Three aspects of achieving First Oil are discussed, highlighting challenges and lessons learned: Managing subsea completions, well cleanup, and flow assurance while drilling was ongoing Enabling accurate data collection from Multi-Phase Flow Meters (MPFMs) and downhole pressure gauges, which was critical to developing foundational understanding of well performance for reservoir characterization and management Establishing an integrated asset team and workflows to ensure life cycle value capture by managing complex marine operations, commissioning, and surveillance while meeting stringent COVID-19 protocols Lessons learned from Destiny Operations will be incorporated into future projects, including a robust digital strategy centered on a fiber ring to shore, which will enable high-speed communications for future FPSOs, and an onshore integrated operations control center for improvement of long-term operations. Early understanding of reservoir connectivity and performance from data collection will continue to inform the reservoir management strategy so as to maximize asset value for the country of Guyana.
She earned her Ph.D. in Biophysics from the Johns Hopkins University and has been with CEISMC since 1996 developing and managing university-K-12 educational partnership programs. She currently leads up a team of educators and educational researchers who are exploring how to integrate science, mathematics and engineering within authentic school contexts and researching the nature of the resultant student learning.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
