Integrated risk management: a Petrobras application in offshore well construction safety to minimize critical emergency disconnections
Abstract In order to avoid mistakes and to save a great deal of time in analysis, an innovative methodology was developed that can analyze the well operations and rig characteristics involved to define the best emergency disconnect sequence (EDS) available. A solution was developed based on the char...
