“计划在未来几年钻探许多生产井和勘探井。我们很高兴获得钻机产能，这将使我们能够实现我们的远大抱负。几年前，我们与中海油服签署了一份总体框架协议，这些合同强调了我们继续合作在挪威大陆架上创造价值的承诺。”首席采购官 Mette H. Ottasey 说道。
两台钻机都通过能源效率措施和工作流程进行了升级，以减少运营排放。
“我们与中海油服合作多年，对这些钻机非常了解。钻机已通过结构加固和更新的操作程序进行了升级，以提高恶劣天气条件下操作的安全性。多年来与我们合作，中海油服展现了良好的安全和绩效文化，我们期望在未来几年实现安全高效的运营。过去几年，我们看到中海油服的燃料消耗和排放量显着减少，我们很高兴他们的发展与我们的战略保持一致。”钻井与油井高级副总裁 Erik G. Kirkemo 说道。
Equinor has awarded COSL Offshore Management AS two contracts and will employ COSLPromoter and COSLInnovator on the Norwegian continental shelf.
The contract values are calculated at around US$369 million for both firm periods.
The COSLPromoter is already contracted to Equinor and will commence on the new contract in the first quarter of 2025. The firm contract is for one year, with options for a further four years. The COSLInnovator is contracted for two years, starting in the second quarter of 2025, and the contract includes options for a further three years.
The contract value includes running of casing, remote-operated vehicle (ROV), offshore waste management and cement unit maintenance. Mobilisation and demobilisation fees are also included.
“We plan to drill many production and exploration wells in the years to come. We are pleased to secure rig capacity which will enable us to deliver on our high ambitions. We signed a master frame agreement with COSL some years ago, and these contracts underline our commitment to continue working together creating value on the Norwegian continental shelf”, says Mette H. Ottøy, Chief Procurement Officer.
Both rigs have been upgraded with energy efficiency measures and work processes to reduce emissions from operations.
“We have worked with COSL for many years, and we know these rigs well. The rigs have been upgraded with structural reinforcements and updated operational procedures to improve safety during operations in harsh weather conditions. COSL has demonstrated a good safety and performance culture over the years working together with us, and we expect safe and efficient operations in the years to come. We have seen a significant reduction in fuel consumption and emissions from COSL over the last years, and we are pleased that their development is aligned with our strategy,” says Erik G. Kirkemo, Senior Vice President for Drilling & Well.
