Offshore rigs
Offshore rigs Inland Barges are composed of two types : a. Barge mounted rigs This type rig is capable of drilling in water depths from 0 to 12 feet. After being towed on location, the rig’s hull is filled with water until it rests on bottom
b.Posted barge mounted rigs Posted barges are capable of drilling in water depths from 0 to 20 feet Offshore rigs
Submersible Rigs : These rigs and are capable of working in water depths from 18 to 70 feet or (90-1000)m. Offshore rigs
Offshore rigs Fixed jacket: Depth:Shallow…500m or less.
Offshore rigs Drill Ship: Depth:deep…2500m or graeter than.
