Introduction
Planned maintenance and correct inspections of rigs are important to minimise downtime and injury to personnel.
ModuSpec's CoalSeam Gas & Mining Land Rigs Workshop provides proven procedures and techniques for the inspection and maintenance of equipment throughout various types of drilling rigs. It allows candidates to learn, identify and implement correct standards and thus increase the safety of personnel and protecting the asset.
This International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC) accredited workshop deals with the most common deficiencies found in drilling operations throughout the Coal Seam Gas & Mining Industries.
A strong emphasis is placed on the relevant Australian standards and state based regulations as well as API, IEC, ISO and OEM codes.
Who should attend?
Drilling Supervisors, Drilling Engineers, Drilling Managers, Maintenance Managers, HSE Consultants, Tool Pushers, Mechanics, Electricians, Drillers and Regulators.
