Offshore drilling activities have been significantly impacted by extreme storm conditions as oil and gas development has moved into deeper water. Under the situation of the imminent arrival of a typhoon, retrieval of the whole drilling riser is time-consuming and tedious. A novel soft hang-off system under hang-off and transit operations is proposed and developed to solve the low-efficiency and time limitation for risers' retrieval. The hang-off joint system suspends the drilling riser and the hydraulic system is designed for dynamic load compensation. Sea trial for enhanced hang-off mode with hang-off joint, non-differential control dynamic load compensation mode at hang-off operation and passive compensation mode at transit operation are conducted to evaluate the load compensation effect equipped with novel soft hang-off system compared with conventional hard hang-off mode. Results on dynamic load compensation effect are discussed. The novel soft hang-off system is of high application value for deepwater drilling engineering.
