Well if they're reading our posts then the only reason that you'd skid a rig, as reported by Dfly from marine traffic info is either because of some emergency - ice berg, hurricane, blowbout - where they've pulled riser but not BOP on which they've closed the blind rams or they've P&Ad the well and are pulling riser and BOPs.

Sent a message to my company man friend in Edmonton, Alberta to find out in what circumstances they install a well head. He's not up yet. Petroleum Engineer from the University of Alberta, got his degree after working rigs in the winter making it to driller. Farm kid from near Peace River. Work farm in spring and summer. Harvest then wait for muskeg and clay to freeze up then work rigs in winter. He's worked offshore all over the planet.

On re-entries offshore Arctic Davis Strait and offshore Labrador there was no well head. Just a P&A with a cap on top of conductor from what I've experienced. So, in answer to a question, they maybe installed a cap and will jerk it off on a re-entry. Lmao! Anyway will advise when my buddy responds. He has already responded to one of Dfly's questions. Smart guy, he is. Now retired. Was a big shot with Schlumberger in their turn-key operations.

While I am not an engineer, professional, or even have anything to do with drilling just google what it means to skid a rig (here's a 2 min video) and tell me if you honestly believe that is what's happened or happening because I don't.  That is just my two cents for what it's worth but for those of you that don't want to watch the video it basically means shifting the rig

From my friend who has drilled a well or two in answer to my question whether they skid the rig when pulling riser and BOP: Yes, that has been done before. The rig is moved from over the wellhead to a safe spot so that in the event of failure, the BOP and riser do not land on top of the wellhead. Sometimes moving operations will commence depending upon circumstances. But for sure, as soon as the

dirk,  are you intellectually  bashing CGX?   SAY IT AIN`T SO  MAN.   lol.

Lol, no. Just getting some answers for Phantom about general stuff from my friend in Alberta. That was copied and pasted by me from my Whatsapp chat with him. Now we're talking about the global economy and supply chain problems.

Thank you Dirk, dfly and your friend. Much appreciated. Seems like care is being taken with . . . their installations.

[Dirksidetrack]

You're welcome Phantom.

I am not an expert. So we can conclude that KAWA 1 has got TD?

Phantom, just and only my opinion. Keep the boards separate. Leave their posts on "their" board. I posted here, before they left, that I liked this board just the way it was. They didn't drop off and just IM privately. No they started a new spot to yack knowing full well it could be read by anybody. I and I think most read many boards. Yahoo, reddit, twits, twitter, SH as well as

SportyJ, Both your posts this morning are interesting and worth reading. You could have desisted from making comments about them. Most readers can make up their minds. I copied and pasted, because I am looking for "other takes", on the same "events or so-called events". I read boards for informations, which must be sifted over and over. Even the best of wirters can be long

Ok phantom, I'll post my friend's response to your question to me here since you copied my message to you here: On land or on a platform offshore, the wellhead or starter head is installed after the surface casing is run. Subsequent casing strings that extend back to surface and that are not liner strings, have a wellhead section and a seal assembly installed on them. The seal assembly

[Dirksidetrack]

Capping the well occurs when the operator wants to come back to the well at a later date. They will put a plug or two in the well and install what is called a dry hole tree. It is just a valve installed on flange that fits on the last wellhead section installed.
