Wintershall Dea has begun the two-year drilling campaign of its West Mira rig, which will work with an upgraded hybrid battery system to cut CO2 emissions by 15% and Bergknapp emissions by 12%. Other technology will include automated drilling, a wired drill pipe and a digital twin of the well. The rig will drill in the NOx prospect in the Norwegian Sea, then move to the Maria field, then to the Vega field. During the Vega work, the rig will move to the Nova project to drill six development wells. It will drill at least 12 wells during the campaign.
