石油设备网讯 据哈特能源3月19日消息，3月19日，Neptune能源公司表示，该公司已与中集集团(CIMC Offshore AS)签署了6口油井的钻井合同。
该合同涉及Beacon Atlantic半潜式钻井平台的租用，该平台将由Odfjell 钻井公司来管理。
Beacon Atlantic是专门为恶劣环境而设计的，适用于从2019年底开始在Duva油田（原Cara油田）钻探的三口开发井。此外，它可能在Gjøa油田最北部P1段另外三口开发井中进行钻探工作。Neptune 能源公司可以选择将该钻井平台用于额外的开发或探井中。
挪威Neptune能源公司总经理Odin Estensen表示：“随着这个现代化钻井平台的承包，我们也正在开发Duva和GjøaP1油田，这两个油田都是我们挪威北海产业组合的主要增长资产。预计到2020年底和2021年初，Duva油田和GjøaP1油田将相继产出第一桶油。”
Beacon Atlantic是一个新建造的钻井平台，该设计旨在用于挪威大陆架上的作业。该平台适合开发钻井和勘探钻井相结合作业。

Neptune Energy Awards Rig Contract
Neptune Energy Norge AS has awarded a rig contract for six wells to CIMC Offshore AS, the company said on March 19.
The contract concerns hire of the Beacon Atlantic semisubmersible drilling unit, which will be managed by Odfjell Drilling AS.
Designed for harsh environments, Beacon Atlantic will be suitable for drilling three development wells on the Duva field (formerly Cara) starting at the end of 2019. In addition, it may drill another three development wells in the northernmost part of the Gjøa field, the P1 segment. Neptune Energy Norge has options to use the rig for additional development or exploration wells.
“With the contracting of this modern rig, we are on track to develop the Duva and Gjøa P1 fields, both of which are key growth assets in our Norwegian North Sea portfolio. First oil for Duva is expected by late 2020 and early 2021 for Gjøa P1,” Odin Estensen, managing director of Neptune Energy in Norway, said.
Beacon Atlantic is a new-built drilling rig designed to operate on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. The rig is right-sized for a combination of development drilling and exploration drilling.
