Offshore rig operations are energy intensive. Significant amounts of electric power is consumed by the various processes required to drill the wells into the reservoirs that provide us with fuel. Finding new ways to increase the efficiency and safety of these operations is a task that most forward-thinking rig operators have placed high on their agendas.

ABB, in cooperation with Parat Halvorsen AS, has developed a smart solution for how to store and utilise the electric energy generated by drilling drawworks dynamic braking systems and at the same time providing a better working environment for maintenance and operational personnel.

The solution delivers improvements in four major categories:

• Simplicity
• Safety
• Maintainability
• Sustainability
