Its not actually a drill ship. Its actually a Drilling tender barge. Its purpose is to be moored next to a fixed platform. Once there it will provide various functions to enable drilling to take place from the platform. This include the capability to transfer and erect a drilling rig on the platform. Electrical power, the supply of drilling fluids for the well to be drilled, this includes the capability of preparing the drilling fluid.
