Abstract:

 The energy efficiency design index(EEDI)-formula of drilling platforms was established and  the EEDIs of the self-elevating drilling units in service or under construction in the world were calculated. The mathematical models of the self-elevating drilling unit reference line value were established using the regression method, providing reference for the energy efficiency assessment of self-elevating drilling units.
 

Key words: self-elevating drilling unit; energy efficiency design index (EEDI); reference line, regression analysis
