Rock drill rig lifting platform installation video explanation

How does a drilling rig work?

To accomplish this, the drill floor and substructure can be skidded from well to well over the platform skidding beams in two perpendicular directions, similar to the system in use on jack-ups. An offshore platform rig, also known as a drilling rig, is a structure that we utilize for exploring and producing oil and gas in the open sea.

What is a platform rig?

These massive structures, or platform rigs (Largest Oil Rigs), are crucial in extracting valuable resources beneath the ocean floor. But what exactly is a platform rig, and how does it work? Many designs of fixed platforms have been used in different areas throughout the world and developments in platform design are continually taking place.

Why do oil & gas companies use platform rigs?

In general, platform rigs enable oil & gas companies to access and extract fossil fuels from the ocean floor, contributing to the energy needs of various industries worldwide. Each platform rig type has its unique characteristics and purposes.

Are self-installing oil or gas rigs a good idea?

Self-installing offshore oil or gas rigs are becoming more popular, albeit restricted to medium sized structures and medium water depths. The system is a very efficient, environmentally friendly, fast and a less expensive method of installing offshore oil or gas rigs and offshore natural gas and oil production platforms.

What is a modular drilling rig?

Modular drilling rigs are the solution to the bottleneck around deploying and installing drilling units on offshore platforms. The safety hazards and the costs of deploying barge cranes are often a challenge for companies around the world.

What are self-erecting Offshore Modules platform drilling rigs?

We developed our self-erecting offshore modules platform drilling rigs to help with the heavy lifting of offshore drilling units. Our modular drilling rigs solution is devoid of derrick barge cranes which simplifies the process.
