Design the Protection of a Drilling Rig

Abstract

This thesis describes and reviews threats faced in rig operation and different types of drilling rig equipment. It majorly focuses on electrical power superconducting protection of a drilling rig and provides research-based guidance for its application in drilling rig operations. The effect of superconducting protection in drilling rigs was assessed. The design aspect and parameters associated with the design of a superconducting protection for drilling rig were investigated. Finally, I chose a suitable circuit breaker for protection.
