The <strong>Maersk</strong> Convincer is capable of drilling in water depths<br />
of up to 375 ft and has a rated drilling depth of 30,000 ft. The<br />
rig is capable of operating in Asia Pacific, the Middle East, the<br />
Mediterranean, Latin America and West Africa.<br />
The Rig distances itself from conventional jack ups in<br />
several areas, not least on the drill floor where the highly<br />
mechanized equipment ensures increased safety for the<br />
crew. The sophisticated drilling equipment also makes the<br />
rig qualified for drilling deep and difficult wells, including high<br />
temperature/high pressure wells.<br />
Main advantages<br />
• High level of safety<br />
• Year-round operation in 375 ft of water in benign areas<br />
• Maximised drilling efficiency and uptime, due to off-line<br />
activities<br />
• Combined drilling load of 1,179 t at 41 ft cantilever reach<br />
(centreline) & 703 t at 70 ft cantilever reach (centreline)<br />
• Fully mechanised tubular handling<br />
• 18 ¾” 15,000 psi BOP system<br />
• 3,400 t variable load<br />
• Prepared for HP/HT operations<br />
• Accommodation for 118 people<br />
• Dual pipe handling. While one string is working in the well<br />
bore, a second string of drill pipe or bottom hole assembly<br />
can be assembled/disassembled in the mousehole
