Rig Preservation & Reactivation

Fairtex Group provides both preservation and reactivation services for all asset types. This helps companies save both time and money and improves HSE over the short and long term.

Fairtex Group offers third-party oversight for Preservation and Reactivation services for Owners or Operators and is able to advise on solutions focused on your concerns, improving the chances of success for your project.

We can provide proven preservation procedures, plans, and schedules that also take into consideration the reactivation requirements. If a Rig/asset is preserved in a professional manner, reactivation will become a much easier task and will require less time and expense.

Fairtex Group has experienced and qualified rig preservation teams to carry out full preservation on drilling vessels prior to cold stacking at anchorage or shipyard. Preservation covers all main drilling equipment, offshore cranes, jacking systems, BOP stacks and control systems, tanks & pits, piping, pressure vessels, main engines, electrical enclosures, lighting, and living quarters, etc.

Our rig reactivation involves a series of steps, including assessment, maintenance, repair, testing, certification, crew training, and commissioning, to bring an idle rig back into active drilling service. This process ensures that the rig is in optimal condition, compliant with regulations, and ready for safe and efficient operations in the oil and gas industry.
