  • 245E moves on 8 giant ass Lampson tracks, huge.

  • wheres the spotters. I always had to walk beside that thing with a radio. especially going around corners.

  • @bezold88 That is 7-es. had to blow it up to see the windwall. I was coming on tour when it burnt up on a rig move. wish I had that shit on video. good rig. hope it goes to work somewhere.

  • @chavycha 7-es and 9-es were designed after the older 2-es. Basically the same just newer and cleaner. We used to call 9-es 409-es. One of those you got time to lean you got time to clean jobs.

  • @mello27 There is no "reserve dam". Thats caveman drilling. They have insulated tiger tanks, bulk mixers, and batch plants to bring up to 250 bbls of premixed mud at a time. They also have large pit systems and the tiger tanks to offload if they need to but the fluid stays in the hole or in the pits for the most part. As long as there isnt an "uncontrolled release" Ive heard of that happening ;-)

  • so wait that thing is sube drecke mud pump drawworks mudtanks acumulator all in one seems like you move to new site and set up your reserve damn

  • I, Gregorio G. Magsino, currently working here in Saudi Arabia as a trailer driver and vibrator operator to the company of ARGAS. I would like to be an employee of your good company ( Nabors) eventhough my present company is also good, please help me! My email address is gregmagsino_1973@yahoo.com.

  • 0__0 Umm did not know those moved....

  • That's crazy seeing something that big move under it's own power.

    I'd like to see one of those discovery channel shows on that baby.

    Cool.

  • I trained on Rig 2-ES in Prudhoe Bay, the identical sister rig to Rig 7-ES shown in this video. Good piece of kit.
