I am pursuing a feasibility study for a major oil company in UK.
I am interested in bulk transfer technology for the purposes of drill cuttings conveyance in the North sea. Problems which need to be addressed are:
Who has the technology to pump drill cuttings 300 ft vertically (up the side of a rig)?
Who has the technology for ship transport of bulk drill cuttings?
I have contacted all major UK solids control companies (OIltools, Apollo, Swaco).
However, is it possible that the technology for a dredger vessel could be transferred to bulk transport of drill cuttings from rig to ship, then ship to rig?
Interfield Transfer of Drill Cuttings
Dear Sir,
I am pursuing a feasibility study for a major oil company in UK.
I am interested in bulk transfer technology for the purposes of drill cuttings conveyance in the North sea. Problems which need to be addressed are:
Who has the technology to pump drill cuttings 300 ft vertically (up the side of a rig)?
Who has the technology for ship transport of bulk drill cuttings?
I have contacted all major UK solids control companies (OIltools, Apollo, Swaco).
However, is it possible that the technology for a dredger vessel could be transferred to bulk transport of drill cuttings from rig to ship, then ship to rig?
Any help, contacts etc, would be really useful.
