OFFSHORE RIGS

Innovative solutions for offshore applications

Automation, combined with hydraulic rig technology, is superior to conventional rig designs. Automated pipe handling and racking reduces manual work and staff numbers, minimizing downtime. Shifting work to shore, such as preparing drill pipes in boxes, further reduces high offshore labor costs. Our hydraulic offshore rig solutions apply to hook loads of 150-750 tonnes. The field-proven equipment can be adapted to exploration, production drilling, work-over, P&A and other operations.

COMPONENTS

COMPONENTS

Fleet support

Operational performance depends on the core drilling rig, and on the rig package including backyard components and their efficient integration. Our drilling components match with our hydraulic rig solutions and enable customers with existing conventional rigs to upgrade and modernize. The stand alone components come with their own power supply and control system. The remote control panel can be integrated within the customer’s control system and we provide all interfaces for data exchange.
