The SPE-KSA Young Professionals Committee, in collaboration with Saudi Aramco Drilling and Workover (D&WO) and IMI, recently organized its first offshore rig visit at IMI’s shipyard in Ras Al-Khair. The visit featured a COSL offshore rig, offering 20 young professionals from three different Admin Areas within Saudi Aramco and two service companies a unique opportunity to gain hands-on exposure to offshore operations.
Participants explored the technical and operational aspects of the COSL rig and interacted with the crew, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application. This experience provided valuable insights into offshore drilling operations, equipping participants with practical skills and a deeper understanding of industry challenges.
