Deep Sea Mooring (DSM), a Vryhof company, announced the signing of a multi-year agreement with Diamond Offshore, a leader in offshore drilling.
Under the terms of the agreement, DSM will provide mooring and related equipment to several of Diamond’s rigs and will work closely with Diamond in developing Diamond’s industry leading Mooring Integrity Management System (MIMS) for offshore operations. MIMS was developed in conjunction with DSM’s subject matter experts and will ensure that mooring integrity for Diamond’s mobile offshore drilling units are of the highest standard. Diamond’s MIMS covers procurement standards, inspection and maintenance standards, certification requirements, risk exposure and protocols, design and assessment standards, and operational practices.
Wolfgang Wandl, Group CEO at Vryhof, said: “Not only are we committing to a ten-year partnership agreement for the provision of mooring equipment to Diamond, but we will also be working closely together on the latest advanced mooring integrity management systems with regular meetings throughout the year.”
He continues: “In these challenging times, drilling contractors are looking to embrace engineering innovations that reduce non-productive time and risk, protect asset integrity, and ensure maximum efficiencies. We are confident that we will achieve this for – and with Diamond through this unique business model.”
