Equipment and tooling support
Configuration enquiries, spare parts orders and site issues need different information. Clear model, size and site details help establish the matching and support requirements.
01Operation and maintenance enquiries
Provide the rig model and a photo of its nameplate or the relevant component, then describe the operating conditions and your question. For a fault, include when it occurred, what you observed and any actions already taken.
- Rig model, nameplate and component photos
- Formation, drilling depth and site conditions
- Description, timing and actions already taken
Maintenance procedures, lubricants and replacement intervals should follow the documentation for the specific equipment.
02Tooling, parts and consumables
For rods, hammers, bits or core tooling, include dimensions and connection details. A product name alone may not establish compatibility; photos of the existing item, connection or package label can help.
- Product model or part name
- Length, diameter, connection and matching equipment
- Quantity, delivery destination and required documentation
For drilling materials, specify the full product name, required grade, packaging and quantity. Confirm the product information for the requested item.
03Supply and regional support
West African warehouses and local service bases support regional projects. Provide the project country, site location, product requirements and schedule to discuss the scope of supply and technical support. Arrangements for other African locations are confirmed by project.
- Project country and delivery destination
- Equipment, parts or technical support required
- Purchasing plan and project schedule
Confirm configurations, included accessories, documentation and service scope before purchasing.
