Rig intake: Trends and lessons for the industry
How to avoid rig intake risks and understand crew competency challenges
This Oil & Gas IQ webinar will focus on key issues operators need to consider during the rig contracting and intake process as our industry bounces back from the last market shock and reacts to new fears over energy security.
Last year saw the initial recovery of drilling rig activity within the upstream oil & gas market after the oil price crash in 2020 and subsequent global pandemic.
Over the past three decades, ModuSpec’s position as advisor to the industry has been vital in successfully navigating the cyclical nature of the oil and gas industry – the rise and fall of rig utilisation, rigs being scrapped or non-operational, rig crews being disbanded and rig owners engaging in mergers and acquisitions.
Our webinar will focus on key issues operators need to consider during the rig contracting and intake process as our industry bounces back from the last market shock and reacts to new fears over energy security.
We will share real examples and lessons learned from the rig intake projects that our team undertook during the past 18 months including:
- Rig reactivation
- Competency of people
- Original Equipment Manufacturers
- Rig maintenance including Condition based monitoring
- Contractor management systems
