DESCRIPTION, OBJECTIVES & SCHEDULE Shell Offshore Inc. (Shell) is submitting this Supplemental DOCD (SDOCD/plan) for Walker Ridge (WR) Block 508, OCS-G 17001 and Walker Ridge (WR) 464, OCS-G 32690. This plan is requesting to commence production for four subsea wells: EE, FF, GG and HH and for the installation of subsea hardware needed to produce these wells. History: The Stones Phase 1 project consisted initially of a subsea development tied back to a Floating Production Storage and Offloading vessel (FPSO). The drilling and completion of these wells were covered in Shell’s Exploration Plan S-7599. The initial DOCD N-9718 covered the installation of the manifold (Drill Center 1), the FPSO and commencing production of these wells. Plan R-6455 was a revision to exploration plan S-7599 to add a drill ship only. Due to drilling issues observed at Drill Center 1, Shell filed Exploration Plan N-9875 for the drilling and completion of eight additional wells and associated drill center (Drill Center 2) in March 2015. These wells and manifold were covered in SDOCD S-7790. Shell filed SEP S-7948 in March 2019 to drill/complete wells, AA-DD, at Drill Center 1. We then followed up with SDOCD S-7969 in December 2019 for Wells AA-DD to commence production and install seafloor accessories. Shell filed RDOCD R-6967 in April 2020 to update AQR to allow for 2 drillships on location. That plan is pending approval. Shell filed SEP S-8014 in July 2020 to drill and complete 4 subsea wells, EE-HH, at Drill Center 2. This SEP was approved Augest 28, 2020. This DOCD will allow those wells to commence production and install seafloor accessories. The wells that have been drilled to date and are being included for future well work are as follows: Well Name Plan EP Name API Number WR 508 005 (SN105) S-7599 J 6081240095 WR 508 007 (SN109) S-7599 L 6081240099 WR 508 011 (SN110) R-6455 M 6081240110 WR 508 013 (SN207) N-9875 R 6081240117 WR 508 010 (SN208) N-9875 U 6081240104 WR 464 001 N-9875 W 6081240112 WR 508 015 (SN115) S-7948 AA 6081240129 WR 508 014 (SN 213) R-6637 P 6081240123 The following are wells we are carrying forward for future well work (in addition to the wells in this SDOCD): Well Name EP DOCD BB S-7948 S-7969 CC S-7948 S-7969 DD S-7948 S-7969 The Stones Unit area covers Walker Ridge Blocks 464, 507, 508, 509, 551, 552, 553, 596, and 597. The development area is 178 miles from the nearest shoreline, 193 miles from the onshore support base at Port Fourchon, Louisiana, and 221 miles from the helicopter base at Houma, Louisiana. The water depths at the well site ranges from ~9,550’ to ~9,600’. B. LOCATION See attached location plat (Attachments 1A and 1B) and BOEM forms (Attachments 1D through 1P). Public Information Copy Page 5 C. RIG SAFETY AND POLLUTION FEATURES As covered in previous EP/DOCD’s for this project, the rig to be used for future well work with either be a DP Drillship (DW Proteus or similar), or a DP semi-submersible (Atwood Condor or similar), or two drillships (one at each drill center). The rigs, once selected, will comply with the regulations of the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the United States Coast Guard (USCG). All drilling operations will be conducted under the provisions of 30 CFR, Part 250, Subpart D and other applicable regulations and notices, including those regarding the avoidance of potential drilling hazards and safety and pollution prevention control. Such measures as inflow detection and well control, monitoring for loss of circulation and seepage loss and casing design will be our primary safety measures. Primary pollution prevention measures are contaminated and non-contaminated drain system, mud drain system and oily water processing. The following drain items are typical for rigs in Shell’s fleet. DRAIN SYSTEM POLLUTION FEATURES Drains are provided on the rig in all spaces and on all decks where water or oil can accumulate. The drains are divided into two categories, non-contaminated and contaminated. All deck drains are fitted with a removable strainer plate to prevent debris from entering the system. Deck drainage from rainfall, rig washing, deck washing and runoff from curbs and gutters, including drip pans and work areas, are discharged depending on if it comes in contact with the contaminated or non-contaminated areas of the Rig. 1) Non-contaminated Drains Non-contaminated drains are designated as drains that under normal circumstances do not contain hydrocarbons and are mostly located around the main deck and outboard in places where it is unlikely that hydrocarbons will be found. Non- Contaminated drains can be directed overboard or to Non-Hazardous storage tanks. Drains are normally directed to storage tanks and only sent overboard if static sheen test is completed. All drains that have the ability to go overboard are plugged and labeled and are lined up to normally go into Hazardous and Non-Hazardous storage tanks. Any deviation from this requires a Request for Approval Drain Plug Removal Form to be filled out prior to any plug being pulled. The rig’s drain plug program consists of a daily check of all deck drains leading to the sea to verify that their status is as designated.

Subsurface instruments may waters presents a greater problem than recovery of these have lift lines for recovery, often on acoustically commanded tripods in the deep sea. Lift lines are impractical at depths release of a float. The lift line and float are large for heavy greater than several hundred meters but bottom fishing by instruments and this creates a flow disturbance that distorts the dragging is not a problem at these depths, so we have environment being measured. When redundancy in recovery lines is added, the volume of lines and floats may become jettisoned weighted tripod bases to recover tripods in the deep unacceptable. Light weight messenger lines with small sea, leaving about 180 kg (400 lb) of iron structure on the messenger floats are less flow disturbing and can be added to bottom. The tripod floats to the surface with 45 kg (100 lb) provide redundancy with less compromise to the measurement. of net buoyancy produced by glass balls or syntactic foam A set of four messenger lines with floats was used in floats. In about forty tripod deployments at depths from 600 the Hudson River in 1995 to recover a massive quadrapod m to 5000 m, only one tripod was lost (acoustic relocation deployed on the bottom for several weeks.

Appendix – Electrical Schematics Abstract The main goal of this project is to engineer a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) capable of operating under simulated polar conditions at the Marine Institute in St. Johns, Newfoundland, Canada. The ROV must complete three missions with tasks that resemble those in industry. First, the ROV must attach a messenger line to a buoy anchor for retrieval. Second, the ROV must complete several oceanographic tasks including obtaining biological samples and deploying a Passive Acoustic Sensor (PAS). Lastly, the vehicle must perform a task seen in the oil industry; replacing a gasket on an underwater wellhead. PantheROV III is a redesign of last year's entry, PantheROV II. The main aluminum dry hull is now anodized for corrosion protection; the thruster housings are adapted from relatively problematic dynamic seals to strong magnetically coupled systems. The frame is upgraded from PVC components to corrosion resistant aluminum piping with SpeedRail(R) interconnects.

  • The Fifth Circle: the Passage Log
    The Fifth Circle: The Passage Log Webb Chiles After I completed my fourth circumnavigation in Sydney, Australia, in February, 2003, I sailed THE HAWKE OF TUONELA across the Tasman to New Zealand, where she found a home at Opua in the Bay of Islands. I bought her a mooring; and I paid the duty so that she could remain in New Zealand permanently, although I can not. For several years I divided my time between the 37’ sloop, which I sailed up to French Polynesia and back one year, and to Tonga and Fiji and back another, and being with Carol, my wife, in the United States, I was happy in Opua and found unexpected peace there. But after a while I wanted to go for a sail. These are the passage logs as I wrote them at sea. They have been only minimally edited, mostly to reduce typographical errors and repetition. This is raw data, the immediate experience.

We helped to pioneer professional rescue and rope access, and we’re delighted with the remarkable progress our industry has made. We are also proud of what we have been able to contribute to that progress. In looking to the future, we realized that our old logo—a silhouette of a litter and tender on rope—did not fully represent the multi-faceted, employee-owned company that CMC has become. We decided to adopt a new logo that refl ects our commitment to providing the highest levels of equipment and training to everyone who works at height.
