INSIGHT: HOW TO AVOID DROPPING OBJECTS

Background:

The mobile drilling rig Deepsea Atlantic was put into operation in 2009. It is on contract to Statoil for drilling on the Norwegian continental shelf in the North Sea. From When we improve our focus on one area, we also improve the outset, the rig had a high number of incidents involving dropped objects. It our focus on other areas. We note that 2013 was the best saw a marked improvement in 2013. After February, no more incidents were registered year ever for Deepsea Atlantic. that year.

Lars Morten Tveit started as Rig Manager dropping objects on Deepsea Atlantic in January 2013. Before that, he was Rig Manager on Deepsea Bergen. From 14 January 2014, he is head of MODU North Sea.

The mobile drilling rig Deepsea Bergen is on a contract with Statoil for drilling on the Norwegian continental shelf in the North Sea. During the client funded yard stay Some companies primarily focus in 2013, the following modifications and alterations were carried out. on the operation of the rigs offshore. • Four new blisters installed to increase the variable deck capacity We intend to be just as good at yard stays. • New office module • Change of cementing unit, completion Stein Harald Nielsen, unit and other third party equipment Rig manager, Deepsea Bergen • New BOP (Blow Out Preventer) crane • Local electrical room for new facilities

Stein Harald Nielsen is rig manager on Deepsea Bergen and was responsible for the project on the part of MODU during the modification work on the rig.
