Drilling
The company said that its AD-300, a 50-m-high automated island drilling rig that walks between wells, was delivered 3 months ahead of schedule.
A report commissioned by Havtil, the Norwegian Ocean Industry Authority, calls for better dialogue regarding pore-pressure uncertainty and higher-end drilling techniques like managed pressure drilling as methods to reduce the risk of well-control events.
