From 16 to 18 January 2024, we carried out an audit of Shelf Drilling Barsk’s management system for health, safety and the environment (HSE). This is a facility that was granted an AoC under Noble Drilling Norway AS (Noble).

Objective

The objective of the audit was to verify that the company’s management system operates in compliance with the regulatory requirements.

Result

No non-conformities or improvement points were identified.

What happens now?

Before we issue an AoC, the company must have corrected all known safety-critical non-conformities, and the facility must have been issued with maritime certificates from the appropriate flag state.
