#News #Gibraltar : Gibdock to focus on repairing offshore semisubmersible and jackup drilling rigs
'GIBRALTAR -- The 22,604-ton semisubmersible drilling rig Etesco Millennium, built in 1976 by Marathon Le Tourneau and upgraded in 2006, is undergoing an overhaul at the Gibdock shipyard.
Steel repair work has been performed with the rig afloat. Tasks ahead include tank cleaning and repair, and work to enable safe mooring.
Currently a survey is under way of the rig structure to determine its condition, as the rig has worked offshore continually for over five years.
According to Gibdock commercial director Richard Beards: “We are optimistic that the owner will authorize further work to the rig once this survey process is completed and details of the rig’s future deployment are confirmed.” ...'
