188bet vipz III rig awarded as 2023 Best Rig in Malaysia

The award was assessed based on criteria such as safety, efficiency, logistics system, operator interaction and support during well construction… Surpassing 15 other jack-up rigs of the same type operating in Malaysia, 188bet vipz III rig was honored to receive the ‘Best Rig’ award given by Malaysia Petroleum Management. 

188bet vipz began participating in the Malaysian drilling market in 2017 with its first drilling contract also carried out by the 188bet vipz III. Since 2017, 188bet vipz has regularly maintained from 1 to 2 jack-up drilling rigs to provide drilling services in this market. Malaysia has also simultaneously become a familiar drilling market to 188bet vipz, with many drilling achievements established here. 

Specifically, the 188bet vipz III alone has regularly received high ratings from Malaysian clients, such as in the first quarter of 2018, the rig was named ‘Best Drilling Rig’, and was also given a Recognition award from Petronas - Malaysia’s National Petroleum Company - to recognize its safe and effective operations, contributing to bringing the Bunga Pakma into production earlier than the original plan by 1 month and 19 days. In 2019, 188bet vipz III continued to receive a Recognition award from Petronas for its outstanding achievements in drilling operation and HSE performance, helping the drilling campaign in Bunga Orkid Delta (BOD) to complete ahead of schedule. Additionally, 188bet vipz III also received a Certification of Merit from Repsol in 2019 for its record of safe operation and completion ahead of schedule in the drilling campaign of 4 wells at Bunga Kekwa  and the Bunga Saffron appraisal well. At the beginning of the first quarter of 2023, the 188bet vipz III rig set a record for drilling the longest well in Malaysia with a length of 6,963 meters. 188bet vipz III has also just received a letter of commendation from client Hibiscus Petroleum for its excellent performance in the evaluation period of the last 6 months of 2023.

The success of the 188bet vipz III rig has made an important contribution in 188bet vipz’s journey of prosperity in the Malaysian drilling market, and acts as a precedent so that 188bet vipz can confidently approach and provide services in other potential drilling market, thereby strengthening its brand reputation on the international drilling market and firmly implement the sustainable development strategy.
