personnel with potential. or 2 years’ certification. This way, we will be able to engage with the current offshore team offering to them this unique certification. • Introduction of a Stuck Pipe Reporting Template which will provide a consistent platform to analyse stuck pipe incidents thoroughly and • Highlighting effective measures for reducing associated NPT. It is highly recommended to implement a drilling database to capture all incidents. • Short and long term stuck pipe avoidance…

Brent Spar was first installed in Brent Field in June 1976 (Kirby 1998).

It was referred to by President Obama in a speech as “the worst environmental disaster America has ever faced.” As a resident of an island nation, I saw my country get more and more anxious. We were unsure of how the oil would impact our marine life and ultimately our economy as fishing is one of our main industries. The stress of this…

stop barrels oil that were gushing into the Gulf of Mexico, covering wildlife, and poisoning water in thick, unescapable oil. It took over 80 days to just stop the leak caused by an oil pipe explosion in 2010.

In January the Obama administration planned to allow offshore oil drilling in the Atlantic ocean. This plan included Virginia down to Georgia. Oil drilling has been banned in the Atlantic ocean for 30 years. If there were to be an oil drill built off the coast of the Atlantic, it could end up putting more marine life in danger than the oil drills in the Gulf of Mexico. In addition, it would put many coral reefs in danger as well. There are many harmful effects caused by drilling. This includes…

The consumption of energy has some impact on its surroundings regardless of energy source. The most used of nonrenewables, oil is the most focused on. The energy requirements could meet the projected population and economy using fossil fuels alone, only, however, if emissions are not taken into account (Lewis & Nocera, 2006). With emissions in mind, a cleaner source would be…
