SunDowner®

Nabors’ SunDowner is capable of being off-loaded and assembled on an offshore platform in a single day…from sunup to sundown. The short rig-up time results in significant mobilization cost savings.

Key Features

  • Three Caterpillar 3512C engines rated at 1,476 horsepower, each driving one Kato 1365 KW generator, for a total of 4,428 horsepower
  • Loadmaster Bootstrap style 142 ft telescoping mast with a maximum rated static hook load of 600,000 lbs on 10 lines
  • Rig floor which provides additional flexibility to configure the rig for different well site locations.

Coiled Drilling

Capable of drilling up to eight laterals from a single wellbore, Nabors’ unique coiled tubing/stem drilling rig, CDR2-AC, was designed to help a major operator more effectively work over old wells and boost production in Alaska’s Kuparuk field.

Key Features

  • Reduced weight of the modules and to avoid breaking through the frozen road surface during transport
  • Allows all equipment, including the entire coiled tubing string, to maintain proper warmth and eliminate freeze-up

Side-Saddle

A Side-Saddle® rig is ideal for batch drilling because it can drill the surface along one row of wells, walk to the adjacent row and repeat the same tasks using the same drilling mud.

Key Features

  • Vast majority of our Nabors SmartRig® drilling systems feature our proprietary Side-Saddle® Substructures
  • Enables simultaneous operations such as coiled tubing, offline cementing or casing running
  • Minimal flowline handling is required

Directional-Ready™

Equipped with specially trained drillers, drilling performance software and reliable measurement while drilling (MWD) telemetry, Nabors Directional-Ready™ rigs include integrated downhole equipment and directional drilling instrumentation to enable high-fidelity surveying and precise placement in productive targets of longer lateral wellbores.

Key Features

  • Drillers working on Nabors Directional-Ready™ rigs are trained in directional theory, automated HMI sequences, BHA makeup and advanced wellbore placement operations
  • Reliable MWD Telemetry
  • Integrated Drilling Performance Software with proactive monitoring by remote technicians at the Rigline 24/7™ Command Center
