Tender assisted rigs


The Jumbo is a barge or tender used as drilling crew accommodations. On board there is space for pipe storage, a helipad, mud pumps, tanks, 2 cranes and chemical stores complete with a folk lift. A flying fox is used to pick up pipes from the barge to the drilling platform.

Try the big four: Shell, Carltex, Mobil and BP. Check their web sites for contact details. Good luck!
