Drilling Rig Design
Drilling rig engineering and design focuses on developing high-performance, safe, and durable rigs for the oil and gas industry. By following API 4F standards, these designs ensure that rigs meet stringent safety requirements and can withstand the extreme conditions encountered during drilling operations. API 4F outlines the essential criteria for structural integrity, load-bearing capacity, and operational efficiency, ensuring rigs are built to endure high-stress environments. Drilling rigs designed to these standards enhance operational reliability, minimize downtime, and optimize drilling performance, making them essential for successful and efficient drilling operations.



Service Rigs Design
Service rig engineering and design involves creating robust, efficient, and safe rigs tailored to the demanding conditions of the oil and gas industry. By adhering to API 4F standards, designs ensure compliance with safety, structural integrity, and operational functionality. Given the unique and demanding operating conditions we tailor our design to meet our clients’ demands. Each rig design meets and exceeds API 4F specifications, enhances safety, and optimizes the overall efficiency of operations, making them a reliable solution for complex fieldwork.


CAOEC - Inspections
As a proud member of the Canadian Association of Energy Contractors (COAEC), TechTree provides Level 4 COAEC inspections for a comprehensive assessment of your equipment. Our inspections cover service rigs, drilling rigs, overhead equipment, and blowout preventers (BOPs), ensuring all components are thoroughly evaluated for safety, functionality, and compliance according to the applicable recommended practice. Our expert team identifies areas needing repair or maintenance, providing a detailed report to help you prioritize necessary actions. With Techtree's COAEC-certified inspections, you can ensure your rig and equipment are operating at peak efficiency and in line with industry standards. Along with Level IV inspections Techtree Engineering has also done a Service Rig CAOEC Level III training course for CAOEC members and has performed multiple Level III inspections for rig clients. We can offer guidance on repairs and inspection criteria for all types of CAOEC equipment.


Modifications
TechTree specializes in rig modifications, we offer engineering packages on, but not limited to, service rig mast extensions, freestanding conversion packages, single to double conversions, adjustable driller platforms, and hydraulic tubing board raising systems, and custom designs for hydraulic winches. Our team has years of combined service rig experience and has completed several SAGD oil production servicing packages with rig floors and telescopic stairs up to 30ft high! Given the ever-changing market, our team works closely with you to design and implement modifications that improve efficiency, safety, and operational capacity. Whether it’s upgrading existing systems or adding new systems, we focus on precision engineering to ensure compatibility with your rig’s specific needs.


Repair & Maintenance
We have encountered various types of equipment failures, from broken lugs to large structural issues, but one thing remains constant down costs and broken equipment is expensive. We understand the impact of these costs and work closely with you to get your equipment back up and running as quickly as possible. We work closely with repair shops or in-house repairs and third inspection companies to make sure the equipment is returned back to work in a safe manor. We will also work with your in-house inspection teams to make sure the CAOEC multi-level inspections are completed and documented, as well as provide guidance on what areas to inspect to prevent further issues. Techtree Engineering will provide repair certifications as per CAOEC recommended practices and get your equipment back to work as soon as possible!
