One of the most significant advancements to reduce costs for drilling multiple horizontal wells from a single surface location or pad is the “walking” rig. A walking rig is self-propelled because it can move short distances (10 metres) without being disassembled and with pipe in the derrick.
[pdf] Designed long-reach horizontal pad drilling applications for either shale gas or tight oil, walking rigs cut drilling costs by spending much more time making hole and much less moving (rig up and tear down), picking up and laying down drill strings and tools, and mixing different batches of drilling mud and cleaning mud tanks for drilling various wellbore sections.
[pdf] This article lists the main components of a petroleum onshore drilling rig. Offshore drilling rigs have similar elements, but are configured with a number of different drilling systems to suit drilling in the marine environment. The equipment associated with a rig is to some extent dependent on the type of rig but. .
