dc.description.abstract | Reelwell Riserless drilling concept has been proposed to overcome the economic
challenge of drilling through the thick salt layer. The concept shall bases on RDM method,
which is a new drilling method with the concentric drill string other special design tool such
as Rotating control devices and Double float valve. The concentric drill string consists of
outer conventional pipe joints an inner string specially designed for RDM that shall allow the
“return” through the inner pipe. This shall eliminate the need of marine riser, which results in
significant cost savings by exclusion of riser related costs and enables us to use smaller rigs
with much lower day rate for ultra deep-water drilling operations. There would also be a
considerable mud cost reduction and rig space saving as there is no riser to be filled up with
drilling mud.
The study has reviewed the conventional drilling procedure, the case study's working
condition and defined the Basic Design of Subsea BOP stack with Rotating control device for
Reelwell-Riserless drilling, to achieve reasonable reliability and performance to mitigate risk
in the operation. The BOP control system is also reviewed and proposed a new technology to
improve its efficiency in the new working environment. | no_NO |
