Maersk Drilling hires SubC Partner for rig inspections

Danish offshore inspection specialist SubC Partner has signed a deal with Maersk Drilling for inspection services.

The company will, under a three-year framework agreement, carry out offshore underwater inspection by ROV of Maersk’s offshore drilling rigs worldwide.

SubC Partner says it has developed special solutions that enable the inspection work to be carried out offshore rather than yard stay, thus lowering the operational costs. The company said the deal encompasses inspection of both semi-submersible drilling rigs and drillships.

Offshore Energy Today has reached out to SubC Partner, seeking more info. We will update the article with any response we receive.
