Green Products and Green Supply Chain

Transocean is continually evaluating the products we use in our everyday business with a view to choosing those with a reduced environmental impact. The products we review range from the materials used to clean and maintain our rig fleet and their accommodation to the control fluids, oils and drilling products used during well-construction projects worldwide.

BOP (Blow Out Preventer) Control Fluid

Transocean is partnered with Houghton International to provide a range of products that deliver reduced environmental impact. From subsea and surface BOP fluids to riser tensioner fluids, the partnership ensures every rig in our fleet utilizes a green product replacement in these key operational systems.


Green Pipe Dope

The greases we use to lubricate our drill pipe components are now chosen to provide a greater level of reliability with a reduced impact on the environment. These greases stand up to extreme pressures and temperatures while being non-toxic to the environment and rapidly biodegradable.


Green Hydraulic Fluid Solutions

A significant portion of our drilling fleet, including our new build vessels, uses state-of-the-art, readily biodegradable hydraulic fluids in all key rig applications from rig floor to crane hydraulics.
