The fourth vessel of the seventh generation is also equipped with the latest technology. Its length is 238 meters, width 42 meters. The height of the drilling rig is 104 meters. The ship’s crew, consisting of 200 people, can conduct drilling operations at a depth of 12,200 m, the report said.
The ship will remain in port for approximately two months to prepare for drilling, including control and painting.
In addition, the new vessel will join the drilling ships Fatih, Kanuni and Yavuz, which conduct hydrocarbon exploration.
The ship’s first mission was to explore and drill in the Eastern Mediterranean.
It will be recalled that in June 2021, Turkey discovered a new large gas field in the Black Sea with reserves of more than 135 billion cubic meters. It was discovered by the drilling vessel Fatih at the Amasra-1 well in the Sakarya area.
And in August 2020, Turkey discovered the largest gas field in the country’s history in the Black Sea – with a volume of 320 billion cubic meters.
