The vessel is designed focusing on the essential functionality for deepwater drilling.
Although ultra-deepwater units feature ever-increasing hook loads and capacities, these requirements can be reduced for a number of wells operating in deepwater.
Scylax has been designed based on these modified requirements that allow for different options in the design, helping reduce building and operating costs.
