Once the drilling facility concept is decided, RigQuip takes responsibility for management of the complete drilling package. We provide our own drilling equipment and procure from others as required, managing manufacturing and quality, as well as controlling cost and risk. We plan and manage the construction phase on site, and we deploy our experienced drilling equipment technicians for the commissioning phase, taking the rig through mechanical completion and delivery.

Our drilling equipment background coupled with broad base engineering expertise allows our team to achieve practical technical solutions with a competitive edge. We incorporate lessons learned from past projects, and our robust processes and procedures enable us to reach our goals in a safe and efficient manner, consistently.

We are a trusted technical authority on drilling equipment to many of the world’s largest operators and drilling contractors. With more than 10 years in business and a management team with many more, there is nothing we haven’t seen or overcome. Our team are highly trained and we have technical know-how that no one else does, including on legacy equipment.

We take pride in our work and provide a comprehensive warranty on all of our products and services, guaranteeing maximum assurance and peace of mind.

Our business has global reach and can support you wherever you are in the world, whether it’s a new build program in Asia, SPS in Europe or the US, or a rig down situation off the coast of Africa.

At RigQuip we see quality management and effective business management as one and the same. We’re obsessed with quality and are constantly improving. We continue to invest in this to give our clients confidence in the services we offer, whether that’s provision of a complete drilling rig package, recertification of equipment or a small parts and expendables order. We attract high quality personnel, employing only those who share our attention to detail.

In 2017 RigQuip became the very first drilling equipment company in the world to achieve API Q2 certification. API Q2 is the first quality standard specifically for drilling industry service companies. It represents a significant leap forward from the latest ISO9001:2015 standard which the business also holds. The purpose of API Q2 is specifically to reduce risk and improve the quality of repair and service of oilfield equipment. The standard was developed as a direct result of the Macondo incident and focuses on risk mitigation, standardisation, material traceability, and personnel competence. API Q2 is challenging to achieve and maintain. It mandates risk assessment, service quality planning, service design and validation, contingency planning and management of change when conducting all activities.

The business retains API Q2 certification for all of it’s activities – supply of rig packages, drilling equipment and associated services including mechanical, electrical and controls engineering, integration and project management; repair, service and maintenance of drilling equipment including supply of parts, expendables and field support.

We provide support to drilling contractors and operators internationally on brownfield platform projects and major mobile rig reactivations alike. We engage with your team, and take charge of a broad range of projects on assets at all stages of their life cycle.
