Safety By Design

The inception of the FlexRig fleet design was guided by a proactive HSE framework from its earliest stages. Supported by a contemporary approach in our company safety philosophy, it enables intentional and strategic ways to efficiently reduce exposure to serious injuries and fatalities (SIFs).

Mast is proprietary design, offering strength of 500,000-1,000,000 lbs, with mechanical and electronic crown-out prevention

Proprietary hemispherical mud tanks facilitate efficient mud cleaning (saving time) & help eliminate the need to enter a confined space

Climate controlled Driller’s Cabin removes driller from the elements, creates enhanced visibility with cameras, and provides back door egress with stairs, away from the rotary table.

Exposures are reduced by not having to mobilize or rig up/down top drive separately

Top drive is fully integrated into the mast design, and traveling block remains in the mast for transport, facilitating efficient rig moves

H&P’s Pipe Delivery System helps prevent injuries utilizing bump gate and trough pipe retention system and eliminates the need for a laydown machine.

Standardized pressure control systems:

5,000 PSI Annular and 10K psi Ram Preventors plus 10K choke manifold with tertiary redundancy available. Additional sizes and capacities also available

Fewer Days on Location
Means Greater Impact

Drilling performance efficiency helps reduce AFE, increase well delivery and accelerate production.

Our flexible rigs (hence the name FlexRig) are engineered to move faster and operate smarter – dramatically reducing days on location. With advanced walking systems and minimal crew requirements, we help ensure safer, more efficient operations.

Our integrated technology suite leverages machine learning and artificial intelligence to predict downhole conditions, optimize drilling parameters and minimize nonproductive time.

The result? Consistent, repeatable performance across regions – from West Texas to the Middle East.

Today, we achieve the same drilling output with just 50% of the rigs used two decades ago. That’s the power of efficiency gains – less fuel burned, fewer emissions and a more sustainable future for energy

Is A Lower Day Rate
Costing You More?

We hear from some operators, “H&P, we’d love to use you, but your day rate is too high.” In this video, we explain the importance of rig move efficiencies and how a lower day rate might actually cost you more.
