Riser Management System
Monitoring your riser system is crucial for optimising efficiency and reducing risk during daily drilling operations. The KONGSBERG riser systems and subsea riser oil-and-gas solutions are proven in the field to provide multiple benefits for your ongoing drilling operations.
KONGSBERG's specialised products and technologies include real-time monitoring systems and decision support for optimum vessel positioning during drilling, and subsea pigging and installation aids for pipelines and pipes.
Our solutions include both riser management systems and riser management services, and can be delivered stand-alone or as an integrated part of a total offshore project.
You benefit from
- Improved decision making - Instrumented assistance and monitoring provide critical, real-time information
- Operation efficiency - Reduced weather-related non-productive time and risk management to prevent errors in operations
Continuous monitoring of activity and response
Rig operators need to measure responses for all stages of the drilling operation, including planning riser drilling in a range of environmental conditions and safe disconnection from the well.
KONGSBERG Riser Management System - (RMS) – gives you the advantage of dynamic monitoring of drilling- and workover-risers based on sensor measurements and advanced computations.
