Malaysia is set to receive Shelf Drilling’s 1983-built Baltic jack-up rig to kickstart a multi-year plug and abandonment programme
Last upgraded in 2015, the rig can support up to 120 crewmen, and comes with the Marathon LeTourneau Super 300 design.
It is anticipated that T7 Global has acquired the rig from the Dubai-based provider to facilitate Petronas Carigali’s P&A initiative.
As Petronas continue to invest in innovative well solutions to boost production, the operator also has plans to permanently plug more than 500 wells over the next five years.
