Joint Rig Inspection DSY
Summary
The inspection scope was based on Well Expertise’s former knowledge and experience with the rig and the risk assessment carried out on January 16th, 2025. The execution of the inspection in its form put effort on testing the assumed knowledge of systems and adherence to such.
The Rig Intake Team would like to thank Odfjell for the professional and helpful cooperation before, during and after the rig inspection. The overall impression is that the inspection team was welcomed and encouraged to find areas to improve. Everything the inspection team requested was provided with no delay, and personnel available to assist with insight to systems and access to areas.
The proactive attitude of the organization also shows in the relatively low number of findings, as competent personnel was available to give in depth explanations of systems, philosophy, documentation etc. in real time during the inspection.
The inspection team identified 22 findings. One (1) non-conformance, twelve (12) observation and nine (9) improvement points. The findings are listed in chapter 5. The findings were presented to the offshore management team in the summary meeting at the end of the visit.
The overall impression is that the rig is in very good condition and effectively managed. Good systems for emergency preparedness, maintenance, and operations with regards to identifying and controlling risk are in place, well known, and adhered to. Personnel on board the rig displayed a strong sense of ownership for rig and operations and takes responsibility for the total delivery.
Odfjell is requested to respond within two weeks of receiving this report on how they intended to handle the findings and sending WE the required information.
Synergi 242223 is prepared in Odfjell’s system for follwow-up.
