The core of our business is qualified and well-trained drillers and rig managers; our policy of retaining key people in downturns has helped to create a significant strategic advantage by providing customers with quality crews whose continuous training, outstanding safety records, and cohesive work history add value at the well site.

Our standard training programs include:

• Safety Observation Training (BBSM)

Additionally, we conduct 2 ½-day professional development seminars entitled “Safety Leadership Phase 1” for all rig crewmembers and “Safety Leadership Phase 2” for all rig supervisors and staff managers. This training provides tools and techniques necessary to meet today's challenges and tomorrow's opportunities.

By emphasizing safety, preventive maintenance and ongoing communication with customers, our crews deliver performance exceeding the highest industry standards.
