Drillship Reactivation​

Inspection and maintenance of NOV pipe handling equipment,​ mud systems and ancillary equipment.

Asset: Drillship Location: Norway Duration: 90 days

RigQuip was engaged by the owners of a modern, 7th gen ultra deepwater drillship to carry out inspection and service of pipe handling equipment, a complete mud system and a range of other ancillary equipment as part of a major rig reactivation scope. Our team deployed to provide a smart, cost-effective solution to recertify the onboard systems during the vessel’s​ extended stacking period.


Challenge

A large volume of modern, high specification NOV equipment was required to be brought back online quickly. Limited maintenance had been carried out during the vessel’s extended stacking period. High quality inspections and reporting as well as meaningful, auditable maintenance was essential.​

Solution

The scope was delivered by our experienced on site team utilising our API Q2 certified RigPartner drilling equipment maintenance system. RigPartner provides high quality procedures and technical content to our teams in the field and facilitates rapid reporting, documentation and remote technical support.​
