Ermak Modular Electrical Cluster Drilling Rig of Walking Type
Year: 2008
Number: 1
Total weight: 1,400 ton
The Ermak modular electrical cluster drilling rig of walking type capable of drilling down to 6,500 m deep was built under a turn-key contract for Eurasia Drilling Company.
This is the first drilling rig produced in Russia that moves with the use of a special hydraulic walking system. This solution, as compared against the rig movement systems based on guide beams, provides for the rig movement not only forwards/backwards but also sidewise and to 360° about its vertical axis.
