Safeguarding Sensitive Areas with Advanced Drilling Solutions

Drilling in environmentally sensitive areas demands technologies protecting marine life and complying with stringent environmental regulations.

Challenges in Environmentally Sensitive Areas

Environmentally sensitive areas impose strict regulations on offshore drilling to protect marine ecosystems and surrounding human populations. These areas often prohibit the discharge of drilling fluids and cuttings to the sea, particularly around coral formations or habitats of rare marine wildlife. The conventional "pump-and-dump" methods become infeasible, elevating the complexity and cost of operations.

Drilling in Environmentally Sensitive Areas | Enhanced Drilling

Ensuring Compliance and Environmental Integrity

 Traditional methods for handling drilling waste are not suitable for environmentally sensitive areas. Our CTS and RMR® systems provide innovative solutions that adhere to the most stringent environmental standards, ensuring all drilling byproducts are not harming the ecosystem.

Advanced Waste Management Solutions

To responsibly operate in environmentally sensitive areas, you need more than just compliance — you need cutting-edge technology and sustainable practices. Our CTS and RMR® systems are engineered to protect marine environments while ensuring operational efficiency, allowing you to eliminate or manage waste with care, especially for the most ecologically delicate zones.

CTS

Ensuring Marine Habitat Protection 

The CTS transports all drilling returns to a designated location far from the wellhead, ensuring that sensitive marine habitats are undisturbed by drilling activities. This system is crucial for maintaining a clear and clean seabed, allowing for other subsea operations to proceed without interference.

Key Benefits:

  • Keep wellhead area free of debris
  • Transport cuttings away from environmentally sensitive zones

RMR®

Advancing Environmental Compliance

RMR® enhances the capabilities of CTS by returning all drilling fluid and cuttings back to the rig, creating a closed-loop system. This technology not only prevents any discharge into the sea but also allows for continuous monitoring of well conditions, which is essential for maintaining operational safety and environmental compliance.

Key Benefits:

  • Zero discharge
  • Reduced carbon footprint
