Barossa and Caldita will commence in early December. NT/P 69 is located in the Timor Sea approximately 295 km north- west of Darwin. The Barossa-1 well was drilled in 233 m of water. Tyrihans Contract For Fugro Fugro Structural Monitoring, a division of Fugro Global Environmental & Ocean Sciences Ltd., won a contract from FMC Technologies to provide a riser manage- ment system for the completion/workover riser for Statoil's Tyrihans Field in the Norwegian North Sea. Working in partnership with MCS, Fugro Structural Monitoring will supply its riser management system, IRIS-RMS, for the project's C/WO rig. Tyrihans is one of the biggest development projects on the Norwegian continental shelf in coming years, and due to come on stream in 2009. "We are very pleased to win this second IRIS-RMS contract for a Norwegian field, and to be working with FMC Technologies," said Divisional Head, Alan Dougan. Combined Technologies Sperry Drilling Services and IntelliServ, a wholly owned subsidiary of Grant Prideco, have interfaced technologies and success- fully tested a system using The IntelliServ Network drill string telemetry to transfer all the data and information generated by down hole drilling and formation evalua- tion tools to the surface in real time, at rates up to 10,000 times those available today. Utilization of The IntelliServ Network, which is fully compatible with Sperry's INSITE logging-while-drilling services, offers new drilling and formation evaluation capabilities, including the trans- mission of high-resolution images of the subsurface in real time. www.seadiscovery.com Marine Technology Reporter 17 Science news MTR#1 (1-16).qxd 1/11/2007 4:26 PM Page 19
