BT-3500TSV - BassDrill Beta
The BT-3500 BassDrill Beta is the next generation tender support drilling unit designed to meet the growing demand for cost efficient tender support drilling in deep water and large deck load capacities. The Unit is designed with a variable deck load capacity of 3,500 tonnes for operations in Brazil, GOM, South East Asia and West of Africa.
The Unit is designed in accordance with ABS notations +A1 Column Stabilized Drilling Unit, +AMS, Circle P and also in accordance with IMO MODU Code, IMO SOLAS, IMO MARPOL and IMO Load Lines.
Improved motion performance compared with other units increases the operability of the Unit, especially for crane operations. The mooring winches are located below the upper deck to provide a large working deck. The crane is designed for minimal number of lifts of the modularized drilling equipment package to the fixed installation.
The BT-3500 BassDrill Beta is contracted by Petrobras for the Papa-Terra Field Development, where services are provided for the P-61 TLP Production Platform.
The BassDrill Beta is designed for the Houston based BassDrill Management Ltd and is being built at the Chinese builder DSIC Offshore, Dalian. For more information see brochure or watch the animation.
BT-MTB BassDrill Alpha
BASSOE TECHNOLOGY has developed two Tender Barges for BassDrill Management Ltd, Houston, USA.
Based on the class approved Light Tender Support Drilling Barge Bassoe Technology designed for BassDrill in 2008, a Medium Tender Support Drilling Barge with increased space and capacities for operations in water depths between 5 and 200 m was designed and built based on ABS class approved drawings developed by Bassoe Technology.
The non-propelled barge, BassDrill Alpha, has an accommodation for 112 people onboard. The design is made in accordance with ABS class notation +A1 Unrestricted Service Barges, and the barge is in compliance with the latest amendments to the MODU and Solas codes.
The BassDrill Alpha was fabricated and delivered from Lamprell Energy Ltd facilities in the UAE in 2010 and is now operating offshore Congo, West Africa.

DSME 6000M and DSME 7000
Bassoe Technology was selected by DSME, Korea for the development of their new compact drilling semi-submersible. Inspite resently built semi-submersible projects, DSME decided to single source the work with Bassoe Technology. The project is based on a concept sizing and optimization of the hull by Bassoe Technology and is jointly developed by DSME and Bassoe Technology. The DSME 6000M is approved by ABS. The DSME 6000M is a deepwater drilling unit based on requirements set forth by Petrobras. The Unit's basic version layout include a DP-2 configuration. However, due to optimized layout of engine rooms and electrical rooms, the Unit can meet DP-3 requirements by small layout modifications.
More information about the Unit can be found here.
Bassoe Technology was asked by DSME to enhanse the DSME 6000M for operation in deepwater in GOM. The DSME7000 has been increased for larger VDL and water depth capacity. The DSME 7000 is designed for station keeping meeting the IMO DP Class 3.
SWS-12000 Ultra Deepwater DP Drill Ship
The Chinese builder Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipyard has selected Bassoe Technology for developing a 69,000 metric tonnes ultra deep water drill ship. The project is based on a marketing survey made by Bassoe Technology to determine the optimal size for a new drill ship. The SWS-12000 hull geometry is based on the BT-MDS hull, a 50,000+ metric tonnes drill ship for high transit speed.
The SWS-12000 is sized and designed for utilizing a dual activity derrick and offers a large extent of flexibility regarding drilling equipment and crane solutions. A large degree of integration of the drilling equipment in the hull has resulted in a optimized size and resulted in a state of the art drill ship design.
The vessel can handle either NOV, Aker MH or TTS drilling packages, including dual activity derrick, N-line or conventional tensioners and up to six mud pumps for three completely segregated mud systems.
The vessel's station keeping meets the IMO requirements for DP Class 3.
Extensive wind tunnel and model tests have been performed for the SWS-12000, including optimization of the moon pool configuration.
Engineering service agreement with Aker Solutions AS
Project coordination and structural analysis.
Peab and West Wind
Bassoe Technology was contracted by PEAB to design the wind turbine installation vessel for Lake Vänern, Sweden. The design met the DNV requirements and DNV submitted a Maritime Certificate for the vessel.
