Nabors’ minimum area, self-erecting MASE® offshore drilling rigs were designed to enhance customers’ economics. Modular in design, MASE® platform drilling rigs occupy less space and weigh significantly less than conventional platform drilling rigs.
A MASE® rig is capable of being erected with standard platform cranes, thus eliminating the need for expensive derrick barges. It is also engineered to assume several different configurations, which allow the rig to be installed on most offshore platforms with minimal interference with production equipment on the drill deck.
