Oil and gas fields in deep water have increasingly been exploited as the more accessible fields have become depleted. Their exploitation brings ever larger challenges for technology, scale and logistics and are a success story that is little heard about in the UK. Barrovian Tony Oldfield as, Project Director of most of the developments off Africa, has the firsthand experience to tell us about these engineering exploits.

The East Coast Digital Programme (ECDP) and Introduction of European Train Control System (ETCS). The ECDP will use digital technology to create a more dynamic, more reliable, and more flexible East Coast Mainline Overall, the ECDP remit is to find ways to improve the operational efficiency and sustainability in delivering a coherent transport service for all, ensuring safe and economical railway systems throughout the UK and Europe with collaboration and expertise across the sector.

The talk will focus on the benefits Infra Red brings to earth observation and the science that infra red detectors enable.

This presentation describes the solutions to a range of wheel security problems on vehicles used in the transport, mining, rail, and agricultural industries. Checkpoint were the inventors of the original loose wheel nut indicator systems over 30 years ago.

This seminar will explore the engineering of confinement systems for a commercially relevant prototype fusion power plant, with a focus on key manufacturing priorities.

In the year that has been selected to mark 200 years of railways, I think it is appropriate to take a bit of a retrospective view. It is true railway signalling evolved by accident and I intend to mention some of the more significant accidents that provoked change. I have always been interested in history and am the author of "A Chronology of Railway Signalling 1825-2018" that documents the evolution.
