Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd.’s Post

Today, many rigs globally are underperforming while continuing to run DC (SCR) control systems, which cannot access and utilize today’s high-performance digital and automated drilling controls. Converting an existing DC rig to AC used to require rebuilding the rig – but no longer.   To simplify the process, Canrig has developed a new, capital-light approach. Our approach involves replacing the existing DC top drive and drawworks with AC models and installing a compact driller’s cabin equipped with built-in drives to power and control the top drive and drawworks. This upgrade can be seamlessly performed during a rig move, resulting in minimal to no downtime.   Read more about it here: https://lnkd.in/gj_-d8Uy   #automation #equipment #oilandgas #Canrig

Hats off to Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd. For revolutionizing the drilling industry with innovations , adopting automation on DC rigs is always challenging and almost incompatible with majority of automation tools to overcome this challenge, thanks to CanRig for helping out now DC rigs can be converted to AC models by replacing the existing DC top drive and drawworks with AC models and installing a compact driller’s cabin equipped with built-in drives. This approach, developed by Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd., allows for seamless upgrades with minimal to no downtime.

The transition from SCR (Silicon Controlled Rectifier) to VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) control system significantly reduces energy consumption & offers more precise control over motor speed. Conversion will enhance main motor performance & will be stepping toward emission controls as well. Fast production & exploration well technique’s will compensate the conversion expenses, It’s great to see the innovative idea by Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd. & implemented by Nabors Industries for their 2000 HP rig.
