The Sagarmatha team, consisting of Valendra Eril Erginansya, Khafiyya Aulia Istiadza, Dinda Meilia Rhepon, Manik Purbo Ulung, and Inggil Tahta Haritza, carried the concept of environmentally friendly oil rig design. They successfully created a mock-up of an oil rig to minimize oil pollution to the sea. In the competition, the mock-up must pass several stages, such as rig tests, floating tests, and motion tests with simulated artificial waves. At the rig test stage, the Sagarmatha Team’s mockup weighing 2 kg managed to support a load of up to 250 kg. However, they did not succeed in the floating test due to the unbalanced mockup design.

Preparation for this competition was challenging. From making accurate mock-ups and calculations to preparing presentations that illustrate the advantages of their designs. However, all of these challenges can be overcome well thanks to the guidance of FTI Industrial Engineering’s lecturers and mentors, namely Dian Janari, S.T., M.T., Diles Parel Lubis, S.T., M.T., and Putri Dwi Annisa, S.T., M.Sc. All three have a big role in achieving team success.

Ata, one of the Sagarmatha team members advised, “If the message from me is that maybe the friends are not interested in the competition. But when you participate for the first time, even though the results lose or win, you will definitely be addicted. So the key is to try first, to win or lose think later.” he said.

Congratulations to the Sagarmatha team for this achievement! Hopefully it will be an inspiration for the next generations.
