BORR NATT Rig Operations

The Natt is the first rig we contracted. An offshore Jack-up rig rated for 400 ft water depth and is owned and managed by Borr Drilling.
The Natt was built and commissioned at PPL shipyard PTE Ltd. in Singapore in 2018 as a PPL Pacific Class 400 rig. The Natt is a modern and capable offshore drilling rig with capacity to accommodate 150 persons.

The Natt arrived in the Anyala field on March 31st, 2019 and began operations on April 17th, 2019 with the spudding of the Anyala-11 appraisal well; the first well delivered for FIRST E&P. The Appraisal well was spudded on May 5th, 2019 successfully drilled and abandoned on August 8th, 2019.

Subsequently, the Natt was towed to the Anyala CSP location on August 17th, 2019 where it was utilised to install the Conductor Support Platform (CSP) on October 4th, 2019. Development well drilling with the Natt kicked off on October 9th, 2019 with the spudding of the Anyala 12 development well. There has been steady progress and performance improvement in the well delivery campaign with the Natt rig. The drilling campaign in the Anyala West field ended in early 2021.
