                  Project Description
                      | 
                  William Jacob Management was  retained to assist BP/Worley Parsons with the overall review, revamp and  start-up of the Liberty Rig located on the Endicott satellite drilling island,  15 miles east of Prudhoe Bay, near Alaska’s Arctic coast. Our 25 person team spearheaded efforts to  review the design and construction of the Liberty rig which was provided by  Parker Drilling.  William Jacob Management followed up the  initial review phase with detailed Design and cost development that BP  utilized to assess the viability of the project.  Based on the Design and cost analysis work  by our experts it was determined that the rig did not meet BP’s requirements.  Furthermore, BP determined that the  completion of the rig was not a viable option due to the costs associated with  making the needed corrections.  |
