They were the leading companies globally in providing systems and equipment for oil and gas drilling.

The Authority warned that the merger would restrict competition in the markets for equipment and components used in oil and gas drilling and production, and thus the merged company has to divest itself of National Oilwell's Norwegian subsidiaries active in drilling equipment sales and service.

My point is that this is not oil drilling.

Norway Intervention in merger between American drilling equipment companies

All the components of the industry such as oil and gas companies, drilling contractors, oilfield equipment suppliers and offshore fabricators experienced increased profits in 1997.

The merged company would have had a very strong position in the drilling equipment market.

We stopped drilling in ANWR, but we didn't actually reduce the amount of oil that we consumed.

Drilling.

So that means drilling for oil in the deepest water, including the icy Arctic seas, where a clean up may simply be impossible.

The Norwegian Competition Authority has intervened against the merger between two American drilling equipment companies, National Oilwell Inc. and Varco International Inc. National.

Deep borehole drilling

In 1994, Texaco reached an agreement with the Government of Ecuador for the company to remedy any damage caused by its oil drilling operations.

The Argentine Government rejects the so called quot right quot of the United Kingdom to authorize oil drilling activities in the Argentine continental shelf.

Accordingly, the Norwegian Competition Authority ordered the sale of National Oilwell's Norwegian subsidiaries active in drilling equipment sales and services on 22 June 2005.

Because you've got to include the man who grew the coffee, which was brewed for the man who was on the oil rig, who was drilling for oil, which was going to be made into the plastic, etc.

It's a scientific drilling vessel.

Drilling should take two hours.

In the Gulf oil spill's aftermath, Lisa Margonelli says drilling moratoriums and executive ousters make for good theater, but distract from the issue at its heart our unrestrained oil consumption. She shares her bold plan to wean America off of oil by confronting consumers with its real cost.

East Fuel General Oil Company said, With China's domestic oil product quality standards continuing to improve, the refining capacity of the equipment also increased.

Construction work and materials, building maintenance and services, environmental control, IMIS related services, institutional contractor agreements, logcap services, leasing of premises, electricity, water and wind power resources and drilling equipment (except equipment for peacekeeping operations), feasibility studies for technical projects

Both National Oilwell and Varco have subsidiaries in Norway, and were well established in the supply of drilling equipment and services for the Norwegian Continental Shelf before the merger.

There are 40 platforms and vessels around the world that could have submitted a tender for the drilling of the deep water (1,600 meter) oil exploration well off Cuban coasts.

Radioisotopes are used in all kinds of equipment in medicine, oil prospecting, agriculture and university research.

That's four hours for the drilling alone.

What for? Because they're drilling, that's why.

He's right down there with those drilling crews.

Vehicles and related equipment, demining, petroleum, oil, lubricants and gases, power and water supplies, pre fabricated buildings, temporary dwellings and accommodations, engineering equipment (peacekeeping operations), training and seminars

Drilling a release well finally did the job of stopping the flow of oil. Deepwater Horizon is still spewing oil into the Gulf of Mexico, even though BP has succeeded in inserting a smaller pipe into the main leakage to suck off part of the flow.

In the wake of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 and the subsequent US drilling embargo, the approval of Shell s drilling operations off the Alaskan coast received considerable media attention. However, this year s planned drilling of three wells in the Chukchi Sea and two in the Beaufort Sea was first reduced to one well and then postponed until next year after a containment dome an emergency device for stopping a blowout was damaged.

If you are a boy, why aren't you drilling?

In the field of environmental protection, the Committee noted that a fibre optic sensor system was being used to evaluate fatigue on marine pipelines and risers, and on offshore drilling and oil production rigs.

Energy reform opens up electricity generation and oil exploration, extraction, and refining to private foreign or domestic investment through licenses, concessions, production sharing, or profit sharing. The oil workers union has been banished from the board of directors of Pemex, the national oil company, and new contracts for shale oil and gas, together with deep water prospecting and drilling, will be signed with a government agency, not with Pemex.

6. Libyan oil production, which relied primarily on United States technology and equipment, was adversely affected in the following ways

(a) Most oil production companies were affected because of the difficulty of replacing old equipment or finding the necessary spare parts

We've been through this before with other ways of offshore drilling.

Obviously, this would cause the cost of drilling to increase significantly.

The most common methods of deleting markings are grinding and drilling.

We've been through this before with other ways of offshore drilling.

Today s Russia is a gigantic reservoir of raw materials, and its economy relies heavily on commodities mining and drilling. Russia is the world s largest oil and gas exporter, sitting on more than 25 of total proven gas reserves.

It was the greed and recklessness that led to the drilling explosion.

It was the greed and recklessness that led to the drilling explosion.

The global oil industry is having a field day fracking, drilling, exploring in the Arctic, gasifying coal, and building new liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities. The world is wrecking the climate and food supply systems at a breakneck pace.

There are also old wells that have stopped producing but that could be made productive again with modern technologies. And there are potential gas and oil fields that can be tapped only with the new technologies of fracking and horizontal drilling.

I could hear them all the way down the corridor above the drilling.
