Thousands, even millions of your
company's dollars depend on the rig and the drilling contractor that you have
selected. At the rig rates that you are paying, you expect the rig to be in top
mechanical and electrical condition, meet all specifications and be equipped as
detailed in the contract. You would expect the rig to be able to work safely, be
in compliance with all governmental regulations and have excellent pollution
control systems in place. Sadly this is not always the case.
Here is what Veritas can do for you:
Inspect the rig and the rig equipment
mechanically and electrically, utilizing a comprehensive checklist to
determine the condition of the equipment so that a corrective action plan
can be implemented prior to startup.
Analyze the contractor's maintenance policies
and procedures to assess the effectiveness of the maintenance program.
Ensure that the maintenance program is being implemented at the rig
level.
Perform a job rating of the rig and rig
equipment based on your drilling program to determine if the rig can meet
the program requirements.
Perform a rig rating to determine the actual
capability of the rig based on the equipment installed and the condition
of the equipment.
Submit a detailed report and verbally review the
findings with you and the contractor management.
Perform rig equipment acceptance testing.
Trouble shoot existing operations.
Assist you and the contractor in developing and
implementing a plan to correct any problems.
