So when those pieces fall off does the next bit have to chew through it or do you send down a big magnet, recover them somehow?

In our case we are sitting on a hard calcite stringer so will need to run in w/ a magnet & junk sub. If the formation is softer you can try drilling ahead with a new bit hoping to push the lost cones or junk off to the side of the hole

This was on a service rig with cased hole on a re-abandonment drilling out cement. We had made it deep enough we didn’t have to go back in and recover the cones.

That one yes. At anchorage in Namibia, Walvis Bay. Few years ago.

We were just in the bay doing a 5 yearly overhaul. We have 6 thrusters to keep us on location when out in the ocean.

Been on Hibernia a few times, but that's a different bird. FPSO? I've seen them where the boat floats up and down around the derrick on the ocean floor?
