Bud's Offshore Energy (BOE)

The above photo, which was sent to BOE in an email message, illustrates that BOP tests are not risk free.  Apparently a pipe ram was blown out of the BOP during a stump (pressure) test prior to running the stack.  Fortunately, no injuries were reported.

Also (below), the 36″ conductor casing was flattened when the casing was run without ensuring that it was filled with sea water.

According to RigZone, the West Polaris is working for Petrobras offshore Brazil.
