| The oil rigg Eirik
Raude is the most modern semi-submersible built to date. It is a Bingo
9000 fifth generation drilling unit, designed for deepwater and harsh
environment operations. The unit is designed for operations in up to
3000 m (9,800 ft) water depth, in a dynamic positioned mode, Class 3.
The Bingo 9000 design will be capable of reducing well construction time
by approximately 15% compared with fourth generation drilling units.
Special consideration has also been given to creating a safe work environment
and a low emission unit. The Eirik Raude is fully winterized for year
round operating offshore Canada and offshore Northern Norway. |
