Two offshore workers have been injured in an incident on the Aker BP-operated Tambar field offshore Norway. One of the workers fell into the sea. Norwegian operator Aker BP confirmed on Thursday that a serious incident was reported on its operated Tambar field in the North Sea at 12.10 local time. The incident took place on the Maersk Drilling-owned Maersk Interceptor jack-up rig, which currently drills wells on the offshore field. “Two people employed in Maersk Drilling are injured in the incident. One fell to sea,” Aker BP said. According to the oil company, the worker was retrieved by a standby boat, and the company is working to bring both involved to land. Offshore Energy Today has reached out to Aker BP as well as the rig owner, Maersk Drilling, for further information about the incident. A spokesperson for Aker BP has confirmed to Offshore Energy Today that two SAR helicopters are bringing the injured onshore. “We have activated our emergency preparedness organization and cooperate closely with the relevant authorities to handle the situation,” the spokesperson added. A spokesperson for Maersk Drilling has also confirmed the incident, adding that one of the workers was treated on board the rig for injuries and is now being picked up by helicopter. The other employee fell overboard and is on route to the hospital by SAR helicopter and has received immediate medical attention, the spokesperson said. The Tambar installation is located 16 kilometer southeast of Ula in 68m water depth. It is a normally unmanned wellhead platform (NUI), remotely controlled from Ula. The Ula field center serves as an area hub for the satellite field Tambar, and as a third-party host for the Oselvar and Blane fields. Aker BP is currently working on a redevelopment project on the Tambar field which consists of two additional wells and gas lift. This is expected to extend the production period from the field by about ten years. The gas lift is being installed because the reservoir pressure at Tambar is no longer sufficient to ensure satisfactory production. As for the Maersk rig, it was hired to drill and complete two new wells on the field, designated 1/3-K-4 and 1/3-K-2.

OSLO, Dec 7 (Reuters) - Two people were injured on a Maersk-owned drilling rig at Aker BP’s Tambar oilfield off Norway on Thursday, Aker BP said. One of the two individuals fell into the sea and was picked up by a ship that was on standby at the field, Aker BP said. It did not provide details of how the second person was injured. Both individuals were working for Maersk Drilling. The company declined to comment on any impact on output at the North Sea Tambar field. “Aker BP confirms that a serious incident has been reported at 1210 (1110 GMT) today at the Tambar field,” the company said in a statement. It did not give additional information on the extent of the injuries.

I bought the drop at 92.49, it's started bouncing back up again now.

Apologies for the unforgivable miss-spelling of "Your" in my previous post, Sluut! I’m humbled and shamed at my blundering typo! Shocking behaviour!

You’re opinion is always welcome, Sluut, baby! However I’m in agreement with the “sand jockey” as you eloquently put it on this one.

Kuwait's oil minister says oil prices may reach $60 by the start of 2017 according to Kuwait state news agency.

I was thinking the same as you, Graham. I was expecting to see it open much higher than yesterday's close. The FTSE 100 opened down 20 points. Any thoughts, anyone?

Noticed this posted on the Globo website from 13th December 2015. http://globoplc.com/globo-at-a-glance/news/ Globo Globo Plc opened its new office in Palo Alto, CA. This comes soon after Globo’s CEO, Costis Papadimitrakopoulos moved to the Bay Area to provide strategic focus to U.S. and Canadian businesses. Dimitris Protogirou, Globo’s COO of North America, noted that the new location was strategically chosen to help the company recruit and retain the best talent and serve its growing North American customer base. “The recent acquisition of Sourcebits, following our purchase last year of Notify Technology, means we are rapidly building momentum in the U.S. and Canada,” said Protogirou. “The new Palo Alto center is further evidence of our commitment to the continued expansion of our North American operations.”
