Exploring New Frontiers - When Experience and Quality Matters © Anadarko exploring new frontiers - when experience and quality matters © Anadarko Commercial Marine Cruise & Ferries Oil & Gas Recreational Boats Navy Obstruction Lighting generations of experience Scandinavians have been trading light to other countries for thousands of years. The Vikings set sail in their longboats to discover new land, and to sell oil to be used in primitive lamps. They challenged the seas and the unknown in their open boats. Later on in history our seamen conquered the seven seas; expertise, innovation and hard work gave birth to new and exciting inventions. The first crude oil was discovered in the North Sea in the late 1960s. Local companies have reached a world leading position with oil technology, drilling rigs and offshore vessels. The same ambition to discover something new and to innovate was very much present in Birger Hatlebakk – the founder of Glamox. In the late 1940s, he started producing electrical material based on his own inventions in the city of Trondheim. A secret chemical formula allowed him to create high quality reflectors from standard aluminum. The company later moved to Molde. Today Glamox is a leading conglomerate within lighting, manufacturing innovative and recognised quality products for distribution world wide. Glamox set sail like the Vikings a long time before them, trading light in foreign waters. contents Generations of experience .............................................. 4 Innovative technology .................................................... 5 We have done our outmost to make sure that Icebreaking innovation ................................................... 7 illustrations are correct at the date of publication.

Through the years several subsidiaries has been established. We fulfill a wide range of requirements through our brands; aqua signal, Høvik Lys, Luxo and Norselight, all of them with longer experience than the mother company. In fact, two of the companies, Høvik and aqua signal, were founded late in the 19th century and started supplying marine lighting before Thomas Alva Edison invented the incandescent lamp. All together we have combined experience of almost 500 years in the group and have several of the most recognized brands in our part of the worldwide marine and offshore industry. As a manufacturer of marine lighting, Glamox gained experience through cooperation with Norwegian shipowners, rebuilding their fleet after World War II. Starting from the early 70’s the offshore adventure in the North Sea began and Glamox became the main contributor within our part of the electrical discipline. Funny enough, relating to the oil and gas industry, in the copper lanterns or the brass wall lamps, they used kerosene, the first commercial applicable product from hydrocarbons. Today we use LEDs in the same products. 4 innovative technology “With our testing we tend to gain flawless function and rough durability for our products – for the customers to rely on” Hasso Schulz, Manager Environmental Test Centre in Bremen. Our laboratories are the best equipped test centers for lighting solutions in Europe and has many years of experience with high demands for testing from the marine and offshore sector. Four climatic test chambers that can reach temperatures from -80 ºC up to +180 °C and allow relative humidities up to 98%, ensures product`s immunity from extreme cold or heat and from rapid changes in temperature or humidity. With the electrodynamic vibration exciter we can expose lighting equipment to extreme vibrations with accelerations up to 15g. Our shock test equipment perform accelerations up to 300g. We are also able to check watertightness and subject the product to several electrical tests. 5 Stena DrillMAX ICE © Stena Drilling Goliat Scarabeo 8 ©ENI Norge Photo: Westcon Øyvind Sætre. icebreaking innovation Stena Drillmax / Goliat / Scarabeo 8 “Early in the process we found that LED technology was the better option for Stena” Andreas Berglund General Manager Glamox Korea stena DrillMAx ICE is the first ice-class ultra deepwater drillship for rough arctic conditions, allowing safe and efficient operations with temperatures down to -30º C. Stena DrillMAX ICE is an ice-class version of Stena DrillMAX. The DrillMAX fleet is built by Samsung Heavy Industries, a world leader on drillship constructions. DrillMAX ICE is the first drillship with DNV requirements winter Ice Cold -30º C (ice classification PC4) The Polar Class classification has a scale from PC1 to PC5, where ship at PC4 level must be able to break through ice up to 125 cm / 4,1 feet. When engineering of Stena DrillMAX ICE started, the door was open for all suppliers to find the best lighting solution for arctic conditions (temperatures down to -30º C). Early in the process we found that LED technology was the better option for Stena Drilling and it was the most efficient solution for to meet the requirements. A LED luminary is not affected by the ambient temperature and gives equal light output at +30º C as well as at -30º C. In order to meet NORSOK standard when it comes to LUX level, a solution with fluorescent lighting fittings would require twice the quantity of fittings as with the LED technology. The use of LED technology was the best solution for Stena Drilling and Samsung, both to reduce weight, maintenance cost, less power consumption and last but not least less © Stena Drilling installation hours for the yard. the goliat FPSO is build according to NORSOK standards with the hull classified to -20º C and equipment to -18º C. The FPSO is built at Hyundai Heavy Industries in Korea for oil major ENI. The FPSO will produce oil in the GOLIAT field in the Barent Sea. Harsh environment demands luminaries that can work in low temperatures down to -18º C. LED technology is the perfect solution for the Goliat FPSO and both the Hyundai Heavy Industries and ENI were convinced that MAX ICE was the perfect luminary for the project. Glamox is a complete supplier of lighting for the Goliat project, including lightdesign and lightcalculation. The semisubmersible drilling rig, scarabeo 8, owned by Italian oil major Saipem, will do development drilling at the Goliat field in the Barent Sea. The rig is equipped with Ex light fixtures for harsh arctic environments.

He works with HSE for the group responsible for drilling and oil wells; StatoilHydro have around 40 operational offshore rigs. “There is a lot of movement and vibration on the rigs, and suspended equipment can come loose and fall down if it has not been properly secured or produced according to our requirements,” he continues. Operators and suppliers in the North Sea area have a joint forum, DROPS, where they discuss and compile requirements and standards to be set for equipment onboard rigs. All potential suppliers of equipment to the operating companies are expected to comply with these requirements. “We have worked together with Glamox for many years now, and they are one of those companies who have taken the problem of falling objects seriously, and developed light fittings in accordance with the requirements we expect.” The actual basis for creating a product which satisfies the safety requirements set by operating companies begins as early as the design stage. “With a supplier such as Glamox, we are in dialogue from design to finished product. We secure the requirements for developing a light fitting which will not fall down. The light fittings are suspended high over the people working on offshore rigs. This is why we have to set strict requirements on suppliers and their products”, concludes Kolstø.

We therefore have to place strict requirements on the quality of all equipment on board, both in terms of quality, functionality and maintenance- friendliness.” Thore Stubberud, BW Offshore Thore Stubberud is manager of the EI&T-department in the technical division of BW Offshore. BW Offshore is a leading global provider of floating production services to the oil and gas industry. With the acquisition of Prosafe Production in 2010 the company is the world’s second largest contractor with a fleet of 15 FPSOs and three FSOs.

The initial total loss of the drilling rig was followed by one of the worst environmental disasters in recent history. The four million barrels of oil that were released into the Gulf of Mexico continue to impact human activities in the area. The Macondo well incident (Mississippi Canyon 252-1, leased by BP as the primary operator) was the first deep subsea blowout in the history of the oil and gas industry, and both the United States’ government and the private sector were unprepared to deal with it. All of the safety system’s lines of defence failed and the response required multiple courses of actions to be taken to address an unprecedented situation. It was imperative to deliver the best engineering solutions under intense and ongoing pressure in a very harsh and highly stressful operational environment. In this paper we review the engineering solutions considered by the response teams.
