This ultra deep-water drill ship was undergoing a project to upgrade, repair and inspect per the 5-year mandatory Class Special Periodic Survey (SPS). Every day was critical as the ship was scheduled to be contracted, with every day worth $750,000. RLG was contracted to work with the planning and execution teams.

Project Highlights

• By implementing RLG’s Project Excellence^™ 20 days were cut from the schedule during the plan optimization phase
• Actual results ended up even better than this optimized target
• Numerous schedule quality reviews and TMP^™ (Theoretical Maximum Performance) sessions fostered a one team approach, with energy, enthusiasm and willingness to help each other
• A robust Operating Rhythm^™ was developed, driving accountability and enhanced, structured communication
