Should discussions with operators indicate that the existing 180 bbl rig tanks are insufficient for hole volume or well control, additional tankage can be added to the basic package as required.
The same principle would apply to fuel storage. A larger onsite tank can be added easily for fluids and/or fuel storage.
Power tongs. The current units are equipped to handle tbg sizes to 5”. If there is a requirement to handle 7” tbg each supplied rig will have the necessary handling tools.
Swabbing. All equipment required to swab tbg from 2-3/8” up to 3-1/2” is in place with the rigs presented in this document.
