Racking Board Pipe Handling
Automated Rig Technologies specializes in designing highly efficient and safe racking board pipe handling systems. Our group designed and built the land-based industries first Iron Derrickman® - now a product offered by Weatherford. Our system offers the following benefits:
Easy integration into land and offshore drilling rigs, including double or triple masts.
Compact, lightweight design that is simple to rig up/down and stays in place during rig moves.
Elimination of wind walls on the racking board and reduced risk for Derrickman climbing the mast during pad, directional, and under-balanced drilling operations.
Operation from the rig floor via portable radio control or hard-wired panel, increasing safety for Derrickman and other rig personnel.
Secure pipe retention system that keeps pipes in place where the operator places it.
User-friendly interface with minimal training required, allowing operators to efficiently rack pipes.
