Offshore oil gas jackup drill rig-Valaris JU-107

KFELS Mod V-B IC 400ft Jackup Rig Info/Jobs.



It is a high performance premium jackup rig. In Jan 2006, Keppel FELS Limited (Keppel FELS) delivered ENSCO 107, a KFELS B Class design jackup drilling rig to ENSCO International Inc (ENSCO) one month ahead of contractual schedule and within budget. The christening ceremony came one day after Keppel FELS and ENSCO inked a new contract for the construction of a US$338 million semisubmersible. The ENSCO 107 is the eighth jackup rig that the Keppel Offshore & Marine group has completed for ENSCO since 1999. It has achieved a clean safety record of zero loss time for its 2,500,000 manhours of work.

Valaris plc on Dec 30th, 2019 (updated on April 22, 2020) issued an update on its offshore drilling rig fleet. Offshore Australia, Chevron has exercised a one-well priced option for the VALARIS JU-107, with an estimated duration of 30 days from late February 2020 to late March 2020. Jadestone Energy has awarded the jackup VALARIS JU-107, a two-well contract, with an estimated duration of 115 days from June 2020 to September 2020.


On February 11, 2019, Oil and gas company Jadestone Energy has signed a rig contract for infill drilling on the Stag oilfield located offshore Australia. Jadestone informed that Ensco Australia had agreed to provide the Ensco 107 jack-up drilling rig to Jadestone, after completion of its current operation in Dampier, Western Australia.

Jadestone intends to drill the Stag-49H well from the Stag wellhead platform, as a horizontal oil producer, targeting unswept pay in the Stag reservoir southwest of the platform. The well will target approximately 1.2 mmbbl of incremental oil reserves from the field.


The company is planning to spud the Stag-49H well in early March 2019 and drilling operations are expected to take approximately 34 days.

The Stag oilfield was acquired by Jadestone through its wholly-owned subsidiary Jadestone Australia on November 11, 2016. The field was developed using a fixed leg, 12 slot manned central processing facility platform with a liquids production capacity of 50,000 bbl/d, of which 30,000 bbl/d is for oil. This is connected, by an eight inch underwater export pipeline, to a pipeline end manifold and floating storage and offloading vessel (FSO), via a catenary anchor leg mooring buoy. Shuttle tankers transfer the oil from the FSO to shore.

It is worth reminding that the Ensco 107 drilling rig was used in 2018 to drill the Dorado-1 well, which turned out to be one of largest oil discoveries ever on the Australian North West Shelf.
