Sedco 711 Donates TV Sets To Three Killybegs National Schools

"It was decided to replace all the TV sets on the Sedco 711 drilling rig, which is owned by Transocean and is working off the west coast of Ireland for Shell E&P Ltd. after talking with the rig manager, Keith Miller, it was agreed that the old sets be donated to schools in the Killybegs area," said Mr. Boyle.

Killybegs is the operations base for all the major oil and gas exploration companies working off the Irish west and north-west coasts

Accepting the gift on behalf of the Niall Mor, Commons and Mintra National Schools, Mr. McGuinness said, "We are thankful to Transocean and Shell E& P for this very practical gift as there are a variety of ways in which television can be used in the education process. ENDS
