Guyanese graduate engineers arrive in Netherlands on SBM programme

Seven Graduate Engineers from SBM Offshore’s Graduate Engineering Programme arrived in the Netherlands on August 10, 2021, to begin training to work on the Prosperity Floating Production Storage and Offloading vessel (FPSO), which is under construction in Singapore.

A release yesterday from SBM said they will spend the next six months in the Netherlands working alongside the project team on the development plans for the Prosperity FPSO.

The graduate engineers are Malik Lewis, Raymond Luckhoo, Kishaun Lall, Paula Ceres, Daniel Troyer, Tanisha Selby and Andy Sattan. The release said that they were all recruited from the University of Guyana earlier this year.

Following this aspect of the training, they will then move on to Singapore for another six months, where they will be receiving hands-on training and will be immersed in the practical aspects of engineering on the Prosperity FPSO. They will then return to Guyana to complete their training and await placement on the Prosperity FPSO, when it begins operations at the Payara field.
