ModuSpec relaunches Subsea Engineer Programme

Rig intake and inspection specialist ModuSpec is proud to announce the return of its highly respected Subsea Engineer Programme (SEP) – a training programme widely regarded as the industry benchmark for excellence in developing subsea engineers responsible for the maintenance of subsea blow out preventers (BOP).

The SEP is being reintroduced in response to strong industry demand, supporting both the new trainee engineers as well as the continued professional development of seasoned engineers.

Now delivered in collaboration with ModuSpec’s sister company Well Academy, the programme is designed to enhance the knowledge, skills and practical competence of subsea engineers across key areas such as maintenance, troubleshooting, compliance and operation of subsea BOPs and related well control equipment.

Participants can enrol at introductory, intermediate or advanced level depending on their experience and current role.

Two introductory level groups are scheduled to begin in 2026 at Well Academy’s training centre in Apeldoorn, The Netherlands.

The SEP is structured around three core modules:

Module 1: Introduction to BOP and well control equipment

Module 2: Maintenance of BOP and well control equipment

Module 3: Troubleshooting & non-productive time (NPT) prevention

Upcoming course dates:

Group A

Module 1:                   16^th to 20^th February 2026

Module 2:                   25^th to 29^th May 2026

Module 3:                   24^th to 28^th August 2026

Group B

Module 1:                   2^nd to 6^th March 2026

Module 2:                   1^st to 5^th June 2026

Module 3:                   7^th to 11^th September 2026

Regional Director for Europe, Middle East & Africa, Mark Watson, said: “The SEP has long been recognised as a foundation for building technical excellence in our industry. This relaunch reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting the development of competent, confident subsea engineers who can meet today’s operational challenges. We look forward to welcoming the first cohort and to subsequently bringing back the intermediate and advanced courses.”
