Drilling Challenges

Some drilling programmes simply don’t fit a standard rig design. The challenge is delivering a bespoke rig without compromising reliability, schedule or long-term support.

A standard rig design can be ruled out by:

  • Unique well programmes
  • Environmental constraints
  • Logistics
  • Automation requirements and operational objectives

Operators need equipment that is:

  • Engineered specifically for their application, not adapted after the fact
  • Reliable, without compromising the project schedule
  • Backed by long-term support

Why BENTEC?

Your vision. Our engineering expertise.

At BENTEC, custom engineering isn’t an option. It’s part of who we are. Working alongside your team, we design every aspect of the rig around your operational requirements.

Every BENTEC Custom Rig integrates:

  • Proven BENTEC drilling equipment, including our top drives, drawworks and mud pumps
  • Digital technologies, with every rig automation ready
  • Power solutions, with hybrid power enabled

Because every major component is engineered, manufactured and integrated by BENTEC, we maintain complete control over quality, performance and future development throughout the project lifecycle.

Key benefits

Designed to Deliver

Purpose-built engineering

Every rig is designed around your operational objectives, site conditions and drilling programme rather than adapting an existing platform.

Complete system integration

Mechanical, electrical, hydraulic and digital systems are engineered together by a single OEM, reducing project complexity and improving long-term reliability.

Future-ready technology

Every rig supports automation, hybrid power, digital drilling technologies and emerging energy applications from day one.

Proven equipment platform

We build on our integrated portfolio of field-proven BENTEC top drives, drawworks and mud pumps to minimise non-productive time and simplify maintenance.

Engineered for any environment

We design to customer-specific operating temperatures, environmental conditions and regulatory requirements, with our Pad Drilling Rig specified for ambient temperatures from -45°C to +55°C.

Faster rig moves

Our Light Fast-Moving Rig can complete a rig move within 9 hours over a distance of 10 km, with only three transport units for the mast and substructure package.

Improved safety

Automated pipe handling on our Fast Moving Desert Rig eliminates rig floor handling and reduces the risks of working at heights, while our Euromatic Rig 480t is operated entirely from the driller’s cabin.

One engineering partner

From concept design and engineering through manufacturing, commissioning and lifecycle support, we remain your single engineering partner.

“Our well programme didn’t fit any standard rig design. BENTEC engineered the rig around it from the concept stage, and because every major system was developed in-house, we had one team accountable from engineering through commissioning.”
