Working in Kuwait
Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) runs most upstream drilling in Kuwait and sets the equipment specification contractor rigs must meet. Deep gas and high-pressure wells explain the 15K BOP packages and 1,000,000 lb plus hook loads on these listings. Desert work also puts extra load on engine air filtration and cooling.
Comparing the Kuwait Listings
Start with hook load and pressure control. The HH 3300 HP sheet lists 1,700,000 lb static hook load on 14 lines, while the HH 2000 HP sheet lists 1,000,000 lb. The BOMCO 2000 HP listing names a 15K BOP package. Match those numbers to your deepest casing string and highest expected surface pressure first, then compare pumps, power and the age of the drive system.
