Hanoi (VNA) - The PetroVietnam Drilling and Well Services Corporation (PVD) will supply drilling service using the PV Drilling VI jackup rig to the Thang Long Joint Operating Company (JOC).

The self-elevating rig, the most modern one of the PVD, was assembled and completed in February 2015. It can drill up to 9,000m at a maximum depth of 121m.

The PV Drilling VI will be used in a project of Thang Long JOC from mid-September at Block 15-2/01 offshore Vietnam.
