The jackup rig construction market in the US gulf coast

Applications of AI in oil and gas projects towards sustainable development: a systematic literature review

“…The practical experience evident from the existing research is passed, which promises further incorporation of all the innovative strategies that help the oil and gas construction projects improve their relativity with sustainability. However, eliminating construction waste and dealing with issues such as resource scheduling and the cost of oil gas projects can be solved when product management departs from traditional approaches (Kaiser 2017 ).…”

Identifying the required infrastructure to improve the jack-up maintenance process based on effective criteria in the Persian Gulf

“…A wide range of studies have been performed in the field of drilling industry and shipyards, examined from different points of view such as maintenance and repair of jack-ups and the cost of maintenance, industry markets, shipyards, and jack-up legs’ analysis) Pisano et al , 2019; Guede, 2019; Nam et al , 2017; Li et al , 2018; Barlas and Izci, 2018; Shazzad Hosaain et al , 2018; Apergis et al , 2017; Kaiser, 2017; Ha et al , 2015; Zhao et al , 2014; Namkug and Ha, 2014; Xian-Gang and Yong, 2012; Pande et al , 2013; Perrons and Richards, 2013; Kaiser and Snyder, 2013; Cao et al , 2012; Zhang et al , 2012; Celebi and Vardar, 2008; Kaiser, 2008; Shabakhty et al , 2003; Morandi et al , 2001), which can help to understand and achieve the conclusive goal of the paper. The articles are divided into three sections, including first part: the jack-up market, second part: the jack-up R&M and third part: shipyards.…”

“…Jack-up consists of a triangular metal body with three or four legs (Zhao et al , 2014; Kaiser and Snyder, 2013; Xian-Gang and Yong, 2012; Zhang et al , 2012; MacAngus-Gerrard, 2018a, 2018b). Besides, it includes spudcans, displacement systems, marine drilling equipment, cranes, accommodation, helidecks, top drivers, rotary tables, mud pumps (Kaiser, 2017; Shazzad Hosaain et al , 2018; MacAngus-Gerrard, 2018a, 2018b).…”

“…The main questions of this research are: which equipment is needed for rigs R&M, what kind of equipment the shipyard has, which equipment is more efficient and what criteria in rigs R&M are important for experts and owners. Other research has focused on repairing the jack-ups' legs, fixing the corrosion of the bodies and legs and mentioning criteria such as cost and time (Pisano et al , 2019; Guede, 2019; Shazzad Hosaain et al , 2018; Apergis et al , 2017; Kaiser, 2017; Zhao et al , 2014; Kaiser and Snyder, 2013; Xian-Gang and Yong, 2012; Pande et al , 2013; Perrons and Richards, 2013; Cao et al , 2012; Zhang et al , 2012; Kaiser, 2008; Shabakhty et al , 2003; Morandi et al , 2001), while other important criteria are not investigated. In addition, past studies have only touched on the types of shipyards and their equipment (Li et al , 2018; Nam et al , 2017; Ha et al , 2015; Namkug and Ha, 2014; Kaiser and Snyder, 2013; Cao et al , 2012; Celebi and Vardar, 2008; Celebi and Vardar, 2006) failing to survey all required equipment.…”
