We are thrilled to announce that Ensign Rig 968 has reached a remarkable milestone: 7 years without a Lost Time Injury (LTI) since May 2024 while working with our valued client, Santos. This exceptional safety record is a testament to the dedication and hard work of the entire crew, as well as the collaborative efforts of all personnel involved in the rig’s operations. We had the opportunity to gather both the new crew members starting their hitch and the current crew who were on tour, taking a break from operations to celebrate this milestone. In a conversation with our Rig Manager, Nathan Drew, he emphasized the importance of stability in maintaining this impressive LTI-free record. Despite numerous personnel changes over the years, the current night managers and two of the four drillers have been with the rig throughout its seven-year period. This stability, combined with the commitment of the entire team to Ensign’s safety policies and procedures, has contributed to this remarkable achievement. Nathan also highlighted that the cohesive effort of all involved including OCR’s, Ensign personnel, and third-party teams, has been crucial to maintaining this record. Matthew Thompson, Senior Drilling Engineer at Santos, noted that Rig 968 handles the most varied well program among all Santos operating rigs, which underscores the crew’s exceptional adaptability and focus. This milestone reflects their dedication to safely navigating the diverse challenges presented by each well program. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the entire team on Rig 968 for this outstanding accomplishment. It is a credit to every individual involved that we have achieved such a remarkable safety record. #oilandgas #drillingrig #oilfield #oilpatch #australia

Let’s start the weekend off with a little game! #oilgas #oilandgas #drillingrigs #oilfield #oilpatch

In honour of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, held every year in October, Ensign participated in a Pink Out Day (October 17), where employees and our rigs, throughout the U.S, wore pink. Thank you to all of our U.S. offices and rigs for participating in our aims to promote screening and prevention of the disease, which affects one in eight women in the United States in their lifetime, with 15% having family history of breast cancer. #breastcancer #cancerawareness #community

Hands up if you’re on day’s off right now! 🙋♂️ #oilfield #oilpatch #oilandgas #oilgas #drillingrig

Congratulations to our crews on Ensign Rig 141 and Cenovus Energy Inc. for reaching the impressive milestone of 1 million meters drilled! Since spudding on January 2013 from Nisku, AB, and drilling its first well at the Foster Creek asset in February 2013, Rig 141 has demonstrated remarkable endurance and efficiency drilling for the same operator since day 1. Over the span of 11.55 years, or 4216 days, the rig has drilled approximately 506 wells, walked between wells 1515 times, and operated on 28 commercial pads. A special shoutout to the dedicated crew members who have been with Rig 141 since its inception: Andy Smith, Leonard Witzaney, and Doug Mackenzie. Your commitment and hard work have been integral to this achievement. Additionally, recognition is due to the Cenovus team involved in the rig’s design and startup: Jason Ross, Todd Palmer, Tim Countryman, and Jason Morissette. This milestone is a testament to the combined efforts of Ensign Drilling, the Rig 141 crew, and the Cenovus drilling teams. Here's to many more successful years ahead and continued achievements in the field! #oilgas #oilfield #oilandgasindustry #oilandgas #energy

Congratulations to David Mejia, WS 351, for receiving Chevron’s “Outstanding Operational Excellence (O2E) Program” award. This prestigious award recognizes David for taking fast action in using his Stop Work Authority to rectify a potential risk. At Ensign, our employees operate with excellence when we stop or prevent an incident or injury from occurring. Our Stop Work Authority procedure encourages our crews to proactively identify and intervene to stop the unsafe behavior and conditions that can lead to workplace incidents and injuries. By halting the task, you provided yourself and your colleagues with the opportunity to investigate and rectify any irregularities. This incident serves as a commendable illustration of Tenet # 2 - Always operate in a safe and controlled condition. #oilgas #oilandgas #oilandgasservice #oilfield #oilpatch #wellservicing
