‘Minimising Off-hire Time….Safely’

 

MODUs and Drillship Asset Challenges

Mobile Offshore Drilling Units (MODUs) include semi-submersible, jack-up, and drillship assets.

Many MODUs are complex, high-value assets and often have to operate for extended periods on station.

Ensuring safe operations and complying with Class and regulatory requirements while avoiding off-hire time and keeping costs optimised poses many challenges for drilling companies.

The Solution to MODUs & Drillship Integrity

EM&I’s unparalleled marine, offshore, and drilling experience has resulted in a unique range of asset integrity services designed to keep MODUs on station for extended periods and on-hire, safely and at lower cost.

The ODIN® diverless UWILD system is accepted by the major class societies and regulators, and minimises off-hire time for underwater inspections of drillships and semi-subs as well as spud-can inspections on jack-ups.

The NoMan® system allows for tanks, pontoons, moonpools, and other confined spaces to be inspected without man entry, using remote cameras and specialised inspection ROVs, thus reducing cost and enabling continued operations with full ballast tanks where required.

EM&I’s multi-skilled teams can carry out ODIN UWILDs and NoMan tank inspections in a single campaign saving the cost of multiple mobilisations and making best use of weather or operational downtime.

Our ability to work with class to develop RBI-based long term plans results in an efficient and flexible Inspection Plan that is compliant and uses fleet experience to reduce overall costs.

The ExPert™ Ex Equipment inspection system uses multi-skilled COMPEX certified technicians to minimise equipment strip down and costs.

Our PSI™ is a world leading RBI based service for pressure systems that uses the latest high tech inspection methods such as RTR and BCT to manage CUI and non-intrusive vessel inspections.
