Ok guys, to save hijacking Captain Rob's previous thread I thought I'd throw some pics up here. Please feel free to add your own as you see fit. Always interested in seeing what others do on a daily basis..
North Rankin Gas Platform
Subsea Tree through the eyes of an ROV, doing an "As found survey"
3 Orange SCM's (Subsea Control Module) electro/ hydraulic operated
TV Room on board Nor Australis
My room for the duration of the job
Known as the "Doghouse" or drillers shack, on board the Ocean Partriot
A BOP stack (Blow Out Preventer), stops the rig from blowing up while drilling through gas pockets etc, on board Ocean Patriot.
Accomodation block and outside smoke shack (container on left) on Ocean Patriot
Your's truely and an ROV
ROV control room
Subsea Tree being removed from deck, this particular tree has a service life of 15 years, it had been down since 1983...
and another
The Derrick on the rig
One of the support vessels
The large pipe you can see is the "Production" circuit, crude oil flows through this before being transfered onto the oil companies for sale.
Another Derrick shot, showing the V-door where the drill pipe/ casing etc gets dragged up to the drill floor.
These long sections on the left are called Production Riser, they get connected together and give you access to the well bore through the subsea tree from the drill floor. Can run tooling down the centre of them to plug a well, pressure test or flare off the well.
My orange umbilical connected to the control pod, this is what gives me hydraulic control of the tree when it is subsea. It is a hydraulic hose made up of 19 lines and about 600mtrs long- very big $$$'s
This area here is called the 'Moonpool" nearly every rig has one, it is located directly under the drill floor, everything that needs to go subsea goes down through here.
Some more riser (400mtrs worth), this is on board the Ocean Bounty
Derrick of the Ocean Bounty
This setup is known as the EDP and LRP, they are two tools connected together (Emergency Disconnect Package and Lower Riser Package) this is placed in the moonpool and run down on the riser when connected all together. It interfaces with the Subsea tree and gives the hydraulic connection etc and no that is not me. That was our Subsea engineer that did not last long with us.
Another support vessel with some of our equipment on board
This particular umbilical has 27 cores, replacement value would run about $1.5Mil.
3rd party computer room on board Ocean Bounty, with Completion Engineer- doing nothing as usual...
Me on top of the EDP/LRP assembly in the moonpool on the Ocean Bounty
Skidding the EDP/LRP over the moonpool, getting ready to run the riser and connect all the lego together...
And my bike, I know...... its not a Busa, not yet anyway..
I do have more, be interested to see what others have got to look at.
