The mast and substructure are hydraulically raised and lowered. The rig structure consists of two bottom boxes, two side boxes, a steel center section, two mast starting sections, an upper mast section, a lower mast section, and a crown block. Only 25-28 loads are required to move the rig to the well site, about half the number of loads it takes for a typical rig. No cranes are required for drilling modules or the mud system assembly.
An innovative secure pinning system generates safer and easier structural connections. The traveling block and top drive remain mounted on the mast during transportation. The draw works disc brake system provides maximum control with minimum noise during operation.
