Fugro Synergy represents a new generation high technology drillship built in response to an increasing
demand for cost effective drilling solutions.
Multi-Purpose Drilling, Geotechnical &
Soil Investigation Vessel
The Fugro Synergy is a new build vessel that has been
specifically designed to deliver Drilling and Sub Sea
well services to the Global Oil and Gas industry. With an
impressive technical specification, the Synergy is capable
of removing many MODU based activities off the critical
path. Fugro Well Services is focused on developing niche
subsurface markets in the shallow section from mudline
down to approximately 3,000m, dependent on water depth.
Capabilities
Utilizing our core drilling knowledge and experience, we can install
and construct the shallow section of subsea wells and seafloor
infrastructure. The main development areas that will add maximum
value to a Client project include:
• Subsea and Well Activity
• Conductor / Casing Installation
• Well De-risking
• Pre-Drill Activities
• Well Abandonment
