Jackup Rig Project Benefits From All Our Specialists

Allswater jumped at the opportunity to assist Encana Corporation with their Deep Panuke natural gas project. Encana required Allswater’s comprehensive engineering and efficient project management services for the mobilization of the drilling program’s jackup rig, the Rowan Gorilla III.

  • Providing engineering solutions that were both effective and budget-conscious for equipment installation and rig upgrades.
  • The fabrication team needed to be selected, approved, and contracted quickly to meet demanding project deadlines.
  • All work aboard the rig had to be meticulously planned and scheduled to minimize Encana’s on-hire time and maintain the project’s budget.
  • All engineering solutions required approval by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS).

Allswater rose to the challenge, using the project’s constraints as motivation to find efficiencies and deliver high-quality results. The turnkey solution provided by Allswater included:

  • Diverse Expertise: A skilled team of specialists, including project managers, electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, and finite element analysis specialists, ensured all aspects of the project were covered.

Comprehensive Approach: Allswater’s all-encompassing approach included engineering, managing approvals, contracting a fabricator, and providing 24-hour project management to keep everything on track.

By taking an “all in,” turnkey approach, Allswater ensured that skilled resources were on hand to react to issues and provide smart solutions, keeping the mobilization on time and on budget. As a result of this successful collaboration, Encana retained Allswater beyond the completion of the jackup rig mobilization to assist with finalizing that phase of their project.
