All of these structures are custom-designed in accordance with customer specifications.

 

Swing-Up Masts and Substructures

 

The self-elevating "Swing-Up" masts and substructures are designed to provide a safer, durable and more stable mast and substructure. They offer the following features:

 

Rig-up at truck bed height is accomplished without the use of a crane. All RBI components can be assembled using a gin pole truck.

Using the drawworks power, only two lifts are required. First the mast and setback structure are simultaneously raised to the vertical position. Then the drawworks, rotary, flooring, and doghouse are elevated to operating floor height.

RBI offers a large drill floor free of A-frames. RBI masts have no A-frames or A-frame spreaders to install, thus faster rig-up and rig-down times are experienced.

 

A reliable sheave and wireline erection system is used.

Triangular side frame structure allows the drilling loads and vibrations to be transmitted directly to the bottom boxes. This results in a more stable drill floor.

Some land rigs require the mast to be pinned to the A-frame at a high elevation above the drill floor creating a safety hazard when a worker has to climb carrying drive pins and a sledgehammer. RBI masts pin at 6' above the ground.

 

Desert Rigs and Rig Moving Equipment

 

RBI offers a wide range of trailer desert rig designs, which are utilized to move a mast and substructure with other associated drilling equipment. These packages are capable of extremely fast rig moves under harsh desert conditions. RBI offers customized rig moving equipment designed for "new build" structures or retrofitted for existing structures.

 

Rig moving equipment is highly specialized and is designed according to the type of rig package to be moved, the environment and customer requirements. RBI's staff of experienced engineers will take all factors into consideration and determine the safest and most efficient rig moving system design to meet the customer specifications.
