Transocean旗下M.G. Hulme Jr.号半潜式钻井平台已抵达日本,该钻井平台由马来西亚的Labuan运送而来。
Johnston船长在接受采访时表示:旅途十分顺利。
据悉,该钻井平台将离开Pusan前往海上钻井地点,航程大约150英里,预计于5月13日左右抵达目的地。
Inpex将会在Yamaguchi海域和Shimane地区使用该钻井平台,2011年日本政府曾启用Shigen号地震勘探船在该地区进行地质勘测活动,这也属于日本国内油气勘探工程的一部分。此外,2013年INPEX还在该地区进行了3D地质勘测。
该项目旨在减少日本对进口能源的依赖程度。石油圈原创www.oilsns.com

Transocean’s M.G. Hulme Jr. semi-submersible drilling rig has reached Japan following a trip from Labuan in Malaysia.
We asked Captain Johnston about the trip from Labuan, and he said: “The trip went off well enough; the biggest problem was avoiding close encounters with Chinese fishing fleets. The weather was generally good, just a bit breezy off Taiwan.”
Offshore Energy Today has learned that the rig is expected to leave Pusan and go to its offshore drilling location, some 150 miles further around May 13.
The rig will be used by Inpex in a location offshore Yamaguchi and Shimane prefectures where in 2011, the Japanese government conducted a geophysical survey from the seismic survey vessel Shigen as part of its domestic oil and natural gas exploration project, and where INPEX conducted a 3D geophysical survey in 2013 based on the earlier survey.
The aim of the project, should it unearth viable quantities of hydrocarbons, is to decrease Japan’s dependence on energy imports.
