2023, we completed 70,000 meters with Roc

70,000 meters, With a height equivalent to eight Mount Everests, the impressive achievement of Beiken and Roc Oil Company Pty Limited (ROC) in 2023 is showcased through this remarkable 'report card'.

In November 2022, the ROC jiao 75 platform was spudded

As of December 21, 2023, Beiken(Chengdu) Co., Ltd.'s team 70006 successfully drilled the ROC Central Sichuan operation area project, achieving an annual drilling footage of a single unit that reached an astounding 71,500 meters. This accomplishment sets a new record for Beiken's annual drilling performance.

How was such an exceptional penetration rate achieved despite relocating six times within the year? Let us reflect on the safe and efficient journey that Beiken and ROC embarked upon together in 2023.

How to achieve 320,000 working hours without accidents?

At 3:00 p.m. on December 21, the ROC jiao 74 platform was officially drilled by Beiken, which is the seventh platform of the ROC project by Beiken.

The pre-spud move took just five days, from moving to erecting the derrick. It is important to know that for 70 drilling RIGS and supporting systems, not only is the relocation difficult and the cycle is long, but the security risks in the relocation process are also particularly large.

In December 2023, the Cape 74 platform was relocated to the operation site

However, according to the calculation of Ye Baosheng, the safety supervisor of Roc, the drilling team (including the site supervision group, 70006 team, orientation, mud, etc.) since the implementation of the ROC project in October 2022, the safe working day has just reached 400 days, more than 320,000 safe working hours.

"The safe working hours of the drilling team are calculated as 12 hours per day worked by the on-site staff or the local management of the well site. Ye Baosheng said.

"We haven't had a single safety incident since we've been at the Rock , not even a scratch." 70006 team safety supervisor Liao Yongjun said.

Such achievements are inseparable from the safety concept of "Safety is paramount" of ROC. They have been consistent with this philosophy and have adopted a range of advanced practices to put the safety concept into practice.

From the relocation of the installation of this item, you can see the importance of ROC in terms of safety. "Before moving, we will do a JSA analysis, and the safety supervisor will convene a meeting with all the team members to explain what the daily operations are and where the risk points are." 70006 team platform manager Li Mangmang said.

For safety, in addition to meeting every morning and evening, ROC's safety supervisors will also hold safety training every Sunday. This safety training is not only about safety supervision, but also allows every employee in the team to share the risk points in their work this week, which not only enhances the safety awareness of all employees, but also enhances their safety skills.

Safety training every Sunday

Li Mangmang, the platform manager, was impressed by the fact that during a process of removing a mud umbrella, a derrickman had to climb up to hang a rope from the capping tool. Although it may take only a few moments to climb directly up to operate, the derrickman insisted that he must first perform a JSA analysis and issue a high-altitude work ticket before starting work.

"In this way, daily and weekly safety training, brothers, 'I want to be safe' awareness has been subtly formed." Li Manmang said.

In March 2023, Lorne, the chief executive officer of ROC, visited the site of the operation

Not only that, under the leadership of ROC, Beiken and other business contractors gradually formed the habit of using the Safety Watch card (STOP card).

The core concept of this safety watch card is full participation, encouraging employees to identify unsafe factors in others and actively raise them. Through this security atmosphere of full participation, it not only ensures its own safety, but also promotes the attention of others to safety, and realizes the concept change from "want me to be safe" to "I want to be safe".

NPT less than 5 hours per month

Emphasis on safety will affect productivity?

"Drilling, not afraid of slow, afraid of waiting." In response, Li Mangmang replied. He believes that safety and productivity are not incompatible, but can coexist in harmony.

After adequate security analysis and security measures are done, there may be a delay of a few minutes or even half an hour in the initial phase, but this will not have much impact on the subsequent work. On the contrary, these safety measures can lay a solid foundation for subsequent efficient production.

In May 2023, the drilling penetration of ROC (Chengdu) exceeded 30,000 meters

Before moving in October last year, Beiken sent all the equipment of the 70006 team to the maintenance plant for a comprehensive "physical examination" to ensure that each equipment can be in the best state.

On the basis of the coordination of people's safety awareness and the health state of the equipment, efficient organization is the top priority. Since the beginning of this year, under the guidance of ROC, Beiken has adjusted the production rhythm to the best state, efficient connection of each process, and continuous improvement of operational efficiency.

In December 2023, the jiao 74 platform was relocated to the operation site

This production rhythm of efficient collaboration and rapid advancement is particularly prominent in the jiao 77 platform. Under the guidance of ROC, Beiken completed 3,763 meters in a single trip at the platform jiao 77H, setting a new record for ROC in a single trip in the area.

Not only that, after the close cooperation of many parties, the design period of the three Wells on the jiao 77 platform was 53.87 days, and the actual completion cycle of Beiken was only 46.75 days, which not only realized the whole process of operation safety, but also created a new record of Beiken with 12928.8 meters of footage in two months.

Li Mangmang said: For the day fee well, it is not easy to save six days when the construction period is greatly compressed.

Efficient drilling, in addition to the implementation of safety measures, personnel close cooperation, but also need to be in good condition during the operation of the equipment.

To this end, in addition to conducting a comprehensive "physical examination" of all equipment before the start of the ROC project, Beiken also conducts equipment overhaul, maintenance and maintenance on time in daily work to ensure that each equipment can operate safely and healthily.

Earlier this year, out of more than 800 hours of operation Time on jiao 75 over 35 days, NPT (Non-Production time) was only 2 hours. NPT refers to the time when the work schedule is interrupted. Any time that affects the work schedule and causes the work time to be delayed can be classified as NPT.

Not only the jiao 75 platform, since the start of the ROC project, Beiken has not produced more than five hours of NPT per month. "In the industry, 30 hours of NPT a month is considered normal, and our NPT is not even one-sixth of that standard." Li said that the reduction of NPT directly improves work efficiency.

Postscript

In 2023, the 70,000 meters we have walked together with ROC is 70,000 meters of efficient coordination and close cooperation, and it is also 70,000 meters of mutual achievement and common development of the two sides.

In 2024, we will build on the excellent results created in 2023 and continue to focus on value creation together with ROC to achieve win-win cooperation!
