PROJECT MANAGEMENT
SMG manages rig move projects as a turnkey service. We ensure rig moves are undertaken in the correct sequences: Load Planning and Management, Load Restraint Surveys, Road and Route Survey, Crane Lifting Services, Site Supervision, Contractor Management, Risk Assessment, safety and toolbox meeting (OHSE). Each service can be implemented and managed strategically by SMG.
SUPERVISION &TRUCK PUSHING
SMG has extensive experience in supervising rig moves at site. We can also provide suitably experienced staff to assist in carrying out the transport plan (truck pushing). This can be done in consultation with the rig manager and primary contractor. Rig moves should carried out by two truck pushers one in old location and other in new location . Deviations from this rule can be authorized by the Rig Manager and Drilling superintendents.
REPORTING & WASHUP
We can compile and report on the overall rig moving process as a means to enhance future services. Daily reports are logged and then compiled to enable clear assessment by the primary contractor. Typical reporting metrics include (but are not limited to): incidents or near miss, contractor performance, time delays, hours of work, under-utilized equipment, client feedback/comments, load rates, and daily movements. Metrics can also be identified and agreed upon at a pre-commencement meeting. Preparation of all documents like work permit and toolbox and submitted to rig manager per day..
