In today’s complex drilling environments, especially harsh and remote ones, you need a partner that can help you reach challenging reserves and quality products and equipment are an essential part of any successful drilling operation.

Often the most cost effective way to keep an older rig active is to modernize the rig with a top drive addition, upgrade the hookload and setback capacity, and increase the mud system to 7,500psi. Headwater was one of the first engineering companies to offer this service and has upgraded tele-doubles, stiff singles, cantilever, and cylinder raised masts (along with their substructures) from many different manufacturers.

You can rest assured that every rig in fully surveyed, modeled, analyzed, and upgraded to full API compliance. We put our extensive experience in designing custom rigs to work to ensure your upgrade is done in the most efficient and cost effective manner regardless of its geographical location.
