Well-Safe will have exclusive access to the system in the UK for well plug and abandonment (P&A).
This is the first owned rig that the company has converted to perform exclusively well decommissioning tasks. Well-Safe envisages the main application for the Trident system as being in open water intervention riser mode, providing secure mechanical access for wireline or coiled tubing operations.
