Wasteparker, in partnership with rig owners in Europe, China and America, is in a position to supply rigs — land, swamp and offshore — suitable for drilling, workover and abandonment operations in Nigeria. Rigs available to the company through its partners range from high-pressure and conventional offshore semi-submersibles and jack-ups, and heavy-duty swamp and land rigs, to lightweight rigs suitable for workover and well abandonment operations. The former are capable of drilling to depths of 25,000ft and beyond. All rigs have a Top Drive System (TDS), are adequately equipped with modern rig equipment and handling tools, and can be outfitted to the specification of potential clients.
