Dolphin Drilling, leading harsh environment and deepwater drilling contractor, has signed a master frame agreement with IKM Gruppen AS for drilling and well services under its new Well Delivery Model umbrella.
The frame agreement, which will initially focus on ROV services, underpins the integration of services and personnel between the two companies, while delivering world class performance through the newest remote operated technology.
Dolphin’s Well Delivery Model is a customised support service created to assist clients with oil and gas production through competitive solutions with a reduced carbon footprint. This virtual operation was created with the global demand for cleaner energy solutions and the energy transition in mind and the model combines the latest advances in drilling technology with new ways of working to deliver significant value results from increased safety, lower emissions and increased efficiencies.
Dolphin Drilling which has operational bases in Aberdeen and Stavanger owns and operates three Aker H3 moored semi-submersible rigs which are currently being marketed in the UK, Norway and internationally and was the first company of its kind to successfully secure Energy Management System ISO 50001:2018 certification, demonstrating its commitment to address energy performance by reducing energy use, energy costs and greenhouse emissions.
