Following the successful execution of an inventive rigging solution to replace the cylinders of knuckle boom cranes on a drillship in the Ivory Coast last summer, the Foxdrill team recently faced a similar challenge on another drillship in the region.
What if .... the top drive of a drilling rig breaks down during a drilling operation? And it needs to be repaired as quickly as possible to continue operations? Then it is important to call in the Foxdrill mechanical experts. They know drilling equipment like no other, and they know exactly what it takes to get a complex drilling rig up and running again quickly.
The Foxdrill rope access team recently carried out an exceptional piece of work on a large drilling vessel off the coast of Côte d'Ivoire. The main boom cylinders on two of the four knuckle boom cranes on board of this drilling giant needed to be replaced.
