Designed to provide maximum uptime with reduced emissions and discharges, such rigs are also known to be highly efficient drilling platforms with industry-leading features for safety and environmental friendliness. The KFELS B Class design was bestowed the Prestigious Engineering Achievement Award from Institution of Engineers Singapore in 2009. From its launch since 2000, more than 30 units are already in the market. The innovative and cost-effective KFELS B Class jackup rig has proven itself to be the trusted, reliable workhorse of the industry, consistently delivering excellent operational and safety performance in major offshore exploration and development programmes in various locations. |
Featuring a combined drilling load up to 2,700 kips, the KFELS Super B Class rig is capable of drilling deep wells both vertically and horizontally. It features an offline stand building capability to handle drill pipes efficiently and includes a cantilever that can be skidded-off by 100 ft, and a high capacity hook load of two million pounds.

Engineered to provide operators with a viable and cost-effective solution for harsh environments and cold climate areas, this robust rig is well-suited to operate in various parts of the world including the UK, Danish and Dutch sectors of the North Sea. |
The design is in full compliance with the demanding and technical challenging requirements of rigs operating in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea. The North Sea region is one of the world's harshest operating environments for offshore exploration and production. The design also provides customers the flexibility of having a jackup unit that can undertake drilling and production activities concurrently. This state-of-the-art jackup drilling rig has features that readily accept process modules for production activities. |
Compared with existing wind turbine installation vessels, and the majority of those being constructed, this vessel can operate in some 45%-deeper waters, while reducing downtime even in extreme storm conditions, thus providing a potentially longer operational window. In addition to being well-suited for servicing offshore wind farms, it also meets all the stringent operating regulations of the offshore oil & gas industry and can support a wide range of related activities such as accommodation, well intervention, maintenance, construction and decommissioning. |
Rigs in the Series also have distinct ‘double-skin' columns, which protect the critical equipment within from damage by external impact. This greatly reduces rig downtime in the case of hurricanes or strong climatic pressures out at sea. The layout of the engine rooms has also been designed to minimise the potential of both being shut down at the same time in an emergency. With their robust features, DSS™ rigs are well-suited to operate in the deepwater golden triangle comprising offshore Brazil, West Africa and Gulf of Mexico, and may be further customised to meet the unique challenges of each location. These well-established DSS™ Series of semisubmersibles are jointly designed by Deepwater Technology Group (DTG) and GustoMSC. |
The DSSTM 38E has accommodation facilities to house a crew of up to 160 men. It has both vertical and horizontal riser storage. The vessel is also designed to keep position via eight azimuthing thrusters and the configuration complies with the American Bureau of Shipping's Dynamic Position System (DPS-3) requirements. Designed to maximize uptime with reduced emissions and discharges, the DSSTM 38 rig is well-suited to handle the operational requirements in the deepwater "Golden Triangle" region, which comprises Brazil, Africa and the Gulf of Mexico. |
The high-specification DSSTM 51HE and DSSTM 60HE semis are among the world's most advanced drilling semis. Equipped with DP 3 capabilities, they have winterized features such as derrick cladding and machinery space heating. Based on Keppel Deepwater Technology Group and GustoMSC's proven DSS series of designs, the rigs are capable of operating in water depths of up to 7,500 feet and drill up to 40,000 feet. |
Conventional drilling tenders can only be deployed next to fixed platforms, most of which are located in shallow waters. The purpose-built KFELS SSDT™ (semisubmersible drilling tender) has revolutionalised the way in which drilling tenders operate, allowing them to be deployed next to deepwater floating platforms for the first time. |
The KFELS SSDT™ also contributes significantly to environmental protection, as well as the safety and well-being of operators. |
KOMtech's slim drillship design is engineered to economically and effectively perform such well maintenance, intervention and light drilling operations. Equipped with dynamic positioning capabilities and utilising a high pressure riser, the slim drillship is capable of drilling and well intervention work in a maximum well depth of 22,500 feet below rotary table in water depths no deeper than 7,500 feet. This drillship design offers distinct advantages against traditional drillships through application of slim hole drilling technologies to enable the drilling of slim exploration and development subsea wells and well interventions, which currently are only in use on land rigs or jackups and fixed production platforms offshore. At 145 metres long, it is a fraction of the average size of a high performance deepwater drillship used in worldwide exploration and is optimised for drilling clusters of subsea wells. |
Delivered to LUKOIL-Nizhnevolzhskneft on time and within budget, Yuri Korchagin became the first ice-class Floating Storage and Offloading (FSO) vessel to be completed and deployed in the Caspian region. |
The hull of FSO Yuri Korchagin was built in two longitudinal halves by Keppel Singmarine in Singapore. These were then towed some 11,000 km and through the narrow Volga-Don river canal to Caspian Shipyard Company in Azerbaijan where the vessel was assembled and completed. The vessel's successful completion attests to our ability to manage and execute massive projects seamlessly across various locations in world. |
It is an enhancement of the proven SSAUTM 3600 design with improved capability and operability. Featuring the latest technology such as Dynamic Positioning 3 and enhanced station-keeping, the SSAU4000NG is meets the stringent UK Health, Safety & Environment requirements to work in the UK sector of the North Sea as well as the Gulf of Mexico, Brazil and Western Australia. |
