Deepwater Drilling

Offshore Technology Conference, 1988
ABSTRACT From Dec/84 until the end of 87, PETROBRÁS have drilled 28 wells in deep waters (deeper than 500m) using dynamic positioning units. This paper presents the drilling program evolution, from the first well up to now, showing the improvement of efficiency and costs control as well as the alternatives selected ...

A Roadmap to Frontier Deepwater Drilling

Offshore Technology Conference, 2015
Abstract Offshore deepwater drilling is a complex activity requiring the use of a variety of technologies to enable safe and reliable operations. Year after year, the industry has progressively been able to drill deeper; reaching depths in excess of 10,000 feet, using state-of-the art rigs designed to theoretically reach up to 12,000 ...

Cyberdefence of Offshore Deepwater Drilling Rigs

Offshore Technology Conference, 2021
Abstract An alternative methodology using new preventative technology to manage cybersecurity exposure on deepwater drilling rig assets is presented. For the past two years Shell's Deepwater Wells business has been evaluating typical cyber defence approaches and undertaken cybersecurity risk assessments and penetration tests.

Problems of Ultra-Deepwater Drilling

SPE/IADC Drilling Conference, 1999
Abstract Ultra-deepwater drilling activity is at an all time high. Recently, there were only two rigs rated to, and actually working in, water depths greater than 6,000 ft. Soon there will be over twenty. This increase will involve new deepwater operators and bring a large number of new people to deepwater.
