Transocean John Shaw

Transocean John Shaw is a semi-submersible type of drilling rig. John Shaw was design by “Friede & Goldman” as a Self-Propelled Modified & Enhanced Pacesetter, built and delivered in 1982 by Mitsui Engineering & Shipbuilding Ltd. in Japan.

Currently holding a Panama flag, John Shaw was designed and outfitted to operate in harsh environments. The rig can operate at water depths up to 1,800 ft (549 m) and drill down to approximately 25,000 ft (7,620 m) using a 18 ¾ in, 10,000 PSI BOP and a 21 in OD marine riser.
