What keeps the boat from rocking when the storm blows thru? And height changes? Do you just anchor it so tight it can't move or heave up and down?

I thought the derrick was the vertical frame...

There's been a pretty good size rig northeast of Chicasha for a while, off of I-44... were you out there?

It is the tall section. No all my rigs are in northern Oklahoma right know.

Do you work for SandRidge?

Oh you were talking about the weight of the derrick?

carbon8 · 07-14-2012, 06:48 PM

No that's how much the Derrick is capable of lifting.

carbon8 · 07-14-2012, 06:49 PM

I have two rigs that work for Sandridge.

Cool. I'm currently designing a transmission line for them that runs from Alva to Cherokee to Wakita and then to north of Medford. I think it's supposed to provide a more reliable power feed for the new drill rigs being set up in northern OK.

5 rigs... you are a busy guy then. Sandridge is a good group. I meet up with some folks from there each year at the WellView user group conference. Also have some buddies up there w/ Chesapeake

What's up with all this oil rig crap!? Get back to the cool car stuff.

Gotta say this: learning cool stuff about drilling; hearing names of places I used to know. (born in Chickasha, raised in Anadarko). Seen alot of drilling in my Early years, just never understood it! Thank you all!
