The purpose of this meeting is to discuss any issues that may have occurred during testing
of the rig and to confirm the priority and timing of punchlist items needed to be completed
before complying with the Clients requirements.
2.1 Purpose:
To test the drilling components for proper installation, function, load capability and
endurance before the rig commences the client’s drilling operations. This test should
closely mimic an actual drilling situation, while realizing that full normal loading will not be
fully possible.
The RDIT must seek to determine any weakness and potential failure that can affect the
drilling operations, safety on the rig and preventing failures by considering all data
acquired during the duration of the test and comparing these data against each equipment
specification and technical features/design. (For example, a mud pump drive motor,
transformer or a SCR having a working temperature rise higher than expected or
generators being unable to take load when required or current–temperature characteristics
not being directly proportional to each other or unexpected overheating of switchboard
components / power transmission lines)
We shall also consider that drilling vessels are in continuous operations and some
equipment may be down, due to maintenance, for considerable period of times therefore
the systems have to demonstrate sufficient redundancy in order to continue the expected
drilling operation in safe and reliable manner. (Example: air conditioning for switchboards,
assignment of SCRs, generators off-line and on-line).
The emergency situation requiring activation of any ESD level (Emergency Shut Down)
shall be tested in a view to ascertain the integrated functionality of all equipment in order
to ensure reliable prompt response to emergency situation that may arise.
The ‘Endurance & Integration test’ is a simultaneous extensive test of the rig equipment
under high load conditions which covers for (but not limited to):
Registered No.: 201632344K
• Power Generation, fuel system, sea water cooling, fresh water cooling, lubrication,
compressed air, ventilation.
• Power Management load sharing, load shedding, load reduction and black out
recovery.
• DC motor driven drilling machineries (Mud pumps, Drawworks and Top drives with
all related auxiliaries, mud processing machines as agitators, degasser, desilter and
desander) as well as electrically driven hydraulic pumps for drilling and well control
equipment. Drilling control system and eventual data integration to the ship
management control system
The integration test is done in one sequence of loading the rig up to maximum
available/agreed power by using various systems (a flat out run). The total test period,
including the warm-up and the power limiting testing is expected to take 12 to 14 hours,
and will involve the operation crew to assist in various tasks.
During the tests when maximum loading is established, the rig owner should provide a
thermographic image service that will provide information on any possible hot spots or
loose connections in the switchboards, MMC-panels etc.
Note; During the endurance testing (Phase 4: Minimum of 8 hours constant load run), if
any shutdowns of major equipment occur for 10 minutes or more, the entire test must be
re-started from zero hours until the full constant load testing period is achieved.
This has to be agreed upon before any integration testing starts, by the client and the rig
owner.
Note: All safety devices have to be tested before commencing any integration
testing to ensure proper function in the event of the need to shut down any
involved equipment.
Registered No.: 201632344K
Ensure that the pre-requirement list has been fully satisfied. (See the first tab of the RDIT
test tables spread sheet)
Use a manual choke to create back pressure for the mud pumps (In combination with mud
pumps SPM). The aim is to run the mud pumps at approximately 90 SPM each and with a
back pressure of 3500 psi. Unless the client has requested for a higher maximum mud
pump pressure and this has been agreed by the rig owner. (Always ensure that suitable
rated liners are installed for the maximum pump pressure agreed)
If a test paddle is available to provide load for the top drive, then a suitable drilling nozzle
can be installed to provide back pressure (Usually ½” or ¾: opening depending on the
number of mud pumps to be running together during the RDIT). Also with the use of a test
paddle it is still advisable to run part of the mud pumps discharge through a manual choke,
as this provides better control of Pressure and Mud pump SPM required.

Note: The photo below is of the jetting sub that was used on the El Qaher 1
during test run, to load up Top drive to full drilling torque. Unfortunately, the rig
did not carry enough drill pipe to enable the jetting sub to be lowered into the
water.
The integration and acceptance test starts with an initial preparation and warming up
period of about 1 hour, where firstly all available 480 Volt consumers like agitators, mixing
pumps, desilter/desander/degasser pumps, trip tank pumps, HPU, air-con units, all
ventilation/HVAC systems, lights, Air compressors etc. are started up and verified to run
under proper load (pumps circulating with water through the mud pits).
During this period, the generators should be checked for proper load sharing and reverse
current and drop-off tests should be completed for each generator set.
Once the 480 Volt busbar is loaded up to similar conditions as expected during a
demanding drilling scenario like top hole drilling or bottom hole drilling, then the charge
pumps and mud pumps are run while checking for proper control from the driller’s cabin.
After initial warm up, record values as indicated in the RDIT record tables.
Registered No.: 201632344K
The Mud Pumps load was increased to 1280 psi at 50 spm. (For further warm up and close
observation)
The top drive load was increased to 1400 ft/lbs torque at 50 rpm.
Run for one hour while monitoring the equipment for acceptable temperatures and
pressures (Within OEM recommended values).
The Mud Pumps load was increased to 1350 psi at 71 spm. (For further warm up and close
observation)
The top drive load was increased to 1500 ft/lbs torque at 50 rpm.
Evaluate whether an additional generator is required on line (load higher than 75%)
Run for one hour while monitoring the equipment for acceptable temperatures and
pressures (Within OEM recommended values).
Operate the drawworks possibly in high speed and load at the hook to create load
dynamicity with substantial variation and observe generators stability (Frequency on line,
variation of active power kW and variation of reactive power kVAR) Frequency expected to
remain steady or (in case of old generation rigs) with minimal variation.
The top drive load was increased to 1800 ft/lbs torque at 50 rpm.
Run for at least eight hours by recording the parameters at the tables at every hour
interval.
After the first 4 hours, change generators on-line in order to possibly time equally test all
generators available under substantial load.
Registered No.: 201632344K
During this step 4 conduct drilling operations like operating the drawworks in high speed to
create load dynamicity with substantial variation and observe generators stability
(Frequency on line, variation of active power kW and variation of reactive power kVAR)
Frequency expected to remain steady or (in case of old generation rigs) with minimal
variation.
Conduct (If possible) random thermal spot checks with emphasis at switchboard
connection points, MCCs, power terminals and electrical machineries. (Use thermal camera,
if available on rig, or laser temperature gun)
Verify main transformers temperatures and ensure they do not overcome the maximum
allowable Insulation class temperature. (Record if possible)
At test completion decrease all loads at the main drilling machineries to static condition
and remain with 2 generators connected on line. All drilling auxiliaries remain operational
Note: If the installation is provided with electronic display module(s) (or cyber-chair
networking system) capable to provide logging of essential drilling parameters (as well as
power management system parameters) this can be recorded and shown on pictures as a
very valid reference for the entire duration of the test.
Registered No.: 201632344K
Once the RDIT phase 1 ‘Endurance Integration test’ has been completed connect only two
generators on-line.
Verify from rig manual what the rig PMS philosophy is and determine the power generated
/ power consumed values to obtain the auto power limitation at the SCRs (Consider also
delay times that are generally specified on the rig technical manual)
Increase the mud pumps load to obtain a consumed load (At generators) slightly below the
power limitation.
Gradually use the drawworks to raise the travelling block until the ‘Power Limit’ alarm is
revealed, and the mud pumps SCRs automatically phased back with speed reduction at the
mud pumps. Ensure that the ‘power limitation’ is activated at the expected power
consumed / power available value.
Some PMS systems also provide auto power limitation in respect to the mud pumps only,
this feature can be tested by running the mud pumps until the power limit value and, once
this has been reached, further increase demand of the mud pump loads will be
automatically stopped at their respective SCR with ‘power limit’ alarm being revealed.
The test can be repeated with different SCR assignment in order to ensure that all SCRs
are automatically limited.
Registered No.: 201632344K
Determine the ESD philosophy and levels (From rig manual) and verify against ‘Cause &
Effects’ tables.
Run all four generators on line (Substantial load not necessary and should only test the
ESD function at very low load in order to avoid unnecessary stress being applied at the
main breakers and machineries)
Activate the first ESD level (Generally ventilation shut-down) and verify effects.
Activate the second ESD level Drilling Shut-down and ensure that all SCRs have been
isolated and the non-certified hazardous area equipment de-energized. (Consult the rig
manual for an available shutdown matrix/’Causes & Effects’ tables as this can vary from rig
to rig)
Activate the third ESD level ‘Main Generators Shut-down’ and ensure that the four
generators have been shut-down and disconnected from line. Verify that the main engines
air flaps (Rig-saver) have closed.
Ensure that the emergency generator has automatically started, and the emergency
switchboard automatically connected on line within 45 seconds from the main power loss.
Verify all emergency switchboard essential users and ensure that one air compressor, fire
pump(s), one tower pump, one BOP triplex pump, one bilge pump, one cooling pump,
emergency lighting, UPSs and all communication devices are operational from the
emergency switchboard.
Load test the emergency generator by running all essential users for one hour and record
parameters revealed at the emergency engine-generator panel at the beginning and before
the end of the test.
Activate the ‘emergency generator’ ESD level which shall cause the emergency generator
to shut down and the rig on Battery or UPS power only. Verify that all battery back-up
emergency luminaries remain operational for at least 30 minutes
Verify that the battery racks / UPSs can provide power to the essential equipment for at
least 30 minutes (PAGA system, Fire and gas panel, GMDSS, verify all UPS/battery back-up
equipment and ensure that all equipment in open area, which remains energized after ESD,
is rated at least for use in zone 2 area even if installed within safe area)
Once checks have been completed restart the rig by running one main generator and
connecting on-line. Ensure the main engines batteries and the main generators control
power batteries are operational.
