\~MPICKUPCAT The PICKUPCAT concept is based on dividing a vessel in two seperote parts: a self contained catamaran containing power, propulsion and steering functions and an interchangeable cargo carrying unit. The assembled units retain the same strength and structural properties as that of a traditional hull construction. The time spent in port engage/disengage two seperate units less than 2 hours. the takes " . :" • •• * - - v" Jt^Li'^- z&i TERMINALS AND TRANSPORTATION FOR LESS The cargo unit may serve as a floating storage facil- ity, independently of the propulsion unit which is free to operate elsewhere. While at sea, the two units operate as one ship. Karenslyst Alle 8 B 0278 Oslo, Norway.

With more than 20 years of favorable deepwater experience behind them, Transocean's revolutionary drilling vessel has been engineered from the top of the derrick - to the thrusters - to optimize ultra-deepwater well-con- based shipyard completed the rigs out- fitting and erected all of its major mod- ules. Both massive and multipurpose, Dis- coverer Enterprise can drill, test and complete wells to 35,000 ft. in water depths up to 10,000 ft. It is equipped to provide extended well testing and stor- age capabilities and allows a variety of subsea operations, including the poten- tial for j-laying ultra-deepwater pipelines. These capabilities were formulated with a cost-effective solution in provid- ing sophisticated ultra-deepwater drilling operation on an international basis. With its patent pending, the dual- activity design allows drilling opera- tions to perform concurrently in parallel - rather than in a sequential series - attacking the "flat times," which can consume up to 65 percent of well-con- struction time on ultra-deepwater wells. Results expected from this design pro- vide a favorable concept - reduction in the amount of drilling days - leading to cuts in both drilling time and well costs. struction and field devel- opment performance. Transocean Offshore owns the vessel, which was constructed at El Fer- rol, Spain. Supplementary to this is Ingalls Shipbuild- ing's test and trials contract with BP- Amoco Corporation.
