On 28th Oct. 2014, COSLPROSPECTOR, the fourth CIMC Raffles deep-water semisubmersible drilling rig build for CDE (COSL Drilling Europe), successfully completed its sea trial task and returned to the dock, the company said in its press release.
This sea trial was carried out by a professional commissioning team including over 200 veterans from CIMC Raffles, COSL, DNV, CCS, Rolls-Royce, Siemens and Kongsberg. They finished commissioning and tests for 70 systems, such as PMS, DP, FMEA, communication, endurance, automatic bridge and mooring in 20 days. The successful sea trial gains highly recognition from the ship owner and the classification.
