The overview flyer places automated drilling from the derrick to the driller's seat. It names four parts and does not print a kilowatt grid.
Product scope
- Integrated control of the drawworks, rotary table, mud pumps, and pipe-handling tools. The room, the seats, and the floor tools are on automated drilling control.
- Integrated instruments for acquisition, display, analysis, and storage of drilling data. That specification is on integrated instruments.
- Video surveillance, written as integrated CCTV across the rig floor.
- The driller's control room: a positive-pressure explosion-proof cabin with integrated seats.
The flyer also prints two counts that the control page repeats: two integrated seats, and six automated tools. Joystick control is named as the replacement for hydraulic and pneumatic controls.
The rig around this room is drilling rig electric drive.
