Emergency In Helicopter At Sea

Some dangerous emergencies that occur in the helicopters at sea:

- Helicopter crashing into the sea: This can be caused by broken machines, errors made by the pilot, or bad weather conditions. The helicopters will definitely sink because helicopters are not designed to float.

- Hypothermia which occurs when helicopter passengers and crew drown in the water as a result of the helicopter falling into the water

- A medical emergency that occurs when a helicopter passenger or crew experiences a critical condition due to an accident or health problems

To escape from the helicopter when an emergency happens, we need the knowledge about:

- Check-in/boarding procedures

- Helicopter Safety Requirements

- Safety Equipment

- Helicopter Emergency

- Hazards during emergencies

- Pre-ditching checks / Actions after ditching

- Surface and Underwater Escape

- Sea Survival Techniques

Some ways to increase our chances of surviving from an emergency that occurs in a helicopter at sea:

* Before flight:

- Safety Procedures In Helicopters: All persons in the helicopters must be provided with information regarding Safety Procedures in helicopters and they must comply with them

- Use proper PPE: Life jackets, SCBA / EBS and others

* When an emergency occurs:

- Be in a calm condition because panic can interfere with our abilities to save ourselves. Take proper breaths and focus on our hearing and mind to listen and obey the instructions given by the Rescue Team.

- Ensure that the right PPEs are used

- Be ready to face the impact by conducting the position determined by the Safety Procedures

- Escape from the helicopter through the emergency exit

- Hold onto a floating stable object for protection and increase the chance of being seen by other ships, helicopters, and Rescue Teams

- Gather together and create groups to save energy in the body and be seen by the Rescue Team

- Use Signaling Tools to attract attention

- Consume food and water that have been prepared before flying. Tips: Instead of drinking seawater, it's better to drink rainwater.

Warning:

The method above should only be used for educational purposes and should not be used as a substitute for Safety Training!

Plug And Abandonment In The Oil And Gas Industry

In the Oil and Gas Industry, Plug and Abandonment (P&A) refers to the process of permanently closing a well that is no longer economically productive or the process of closing a well for safety reasons. P&A is the most important practice in the Oil and Gas Industry to ensure environmental protection and safety. Along with industry efforts to reduce environmental impacts, P&A has become the most important process that must be carried out in the Oil and Gas Industry.

The following is an explanation of P&A:

- Reason: There are 2 main reasons why P&A is done. First, to isolate the wellbore and prevent hydrocarbons or fluids from migrating upwards and contaminating freshwater sources or other formations. Second, to ensure that the well is safe and does not pose dangers or threats to safety.

- Regulation: Successful P&A Operations do not depend solely on technical efficacy, but are also impacted by local legislative requirements and industry standards. Regulatory Agencies require operators to submit a detailed P&A Plan for approval before undertaking P&A.

- Process: P&A involves placing plugs made of cement or other materials strategically placed along the wellbore. This process isolates the various zones and permanently seals the well.

- Operation: The success of a P&A Operation relies on the placement, management, and verification of several permanent barriers. The other success of a P&A Operation relies also on communication between teams. The P&A Operation is managed and executed by a multidisciplinary team consisting of Asset Managers, Well Engineers, Completion Engineers, Logistics Technicians, and other functions. Managing communications between these disciplines and recognizing the human elements of the decision-making process will ensure that this important part of the process is executed effectively.

- Historical Context: P&A has not always been a top priority, but as the environmental and safety risks of improperly abandoned wells have become clearer, regulations have been put in place to ensure proper shut-in procedures are followed.

- Challenges: P&A can be a complicated and expensive process, especially for older wells drilled before stricter regulations were implemented. There may also be difficulties in managing the large number of wells that will eventually need to be subjected to P&A, especially in mature oil and gas fields.

Technology And Equipment Used In Oil And Gas Well Drilling

The developments that occur in the oil and gas industry are also supported by developments in technology and equipment that are always innovative, new, and updated. The following is the technology and equipment used in oil and gas well drilling which is becoming more sophisticated from year to year:

* Drilling Rigs:

- Derrick: The tall tower at a drilling site that provides a structure to raise and lower the drill pipe, casing, and other tools

- Top Drive: The system that rotates the drill pipe from the top of the derrick, rather than from the bottom. This allows for more precise control of the drilling process.

- Mud Pump: This pump circulates drilling fluid (or mud) down the drill pipe and out of the drill bit. The mud helps to cool and lubricate the bit, carry cuttings to the surface, and maintain pressure in the wellbore.

- Blowout Preventer (BOP): The safety device that is designed to prevent uncontrolled releases of oil and gas from the wellbore. There are several BOPs stacked on top of each other, and they can be closed to seal off the wellbore in the event of a blowout.

* Drilling Technologies:

- Rotary Drilling: This is the most common type of drilling, where a bit is rotated to break up the rock

- Directional Drilling: This type of drilling allows the wellbore to deviate from vertical, which can be necessary to reach oil and gas reserves that are not directly below the drilling rig

- Horizontal Extended Reach Drilling (HERD): This is a type of directional drilling that allows wells to be drilled over long distances horizontally. This can be used to reach reserves that are far from the drilling rig or to drill under environmentally sensitive areas.

- Logging While Drilling (LWD): This technology allows real-time data to be collected about the formation being drilled through. This data can be used to help steer the wellbore, identify potential problems, and evaluate the potential productivity of the well.
