Jackup Rig Fuel & CO₂

Contents

Live calculator

Self-elevating jackup MODUs. Outside CII scope; per-operating-day intensity is the North Sea / Gulf of Mexico benchmark.

Formula

$$ \text{CO}2^\text{year} = \sum_j F_j \cdot C{f,j} $$

$$ \text{Intensity} = \frac{\text{CO}2^\text{year}}{d\text{drilling}} $$

Jackups burn ~ 15–30 t MGO per drilling day depending on water depth and drilling programme. Power-from-shore cables (where available) zero out the operational emissions entirely.
