Onshore Drilling
advanced engineering for your project
Apache Refinery Services – Onshore Drilling Rig Capabilities
Build. Deploy. Operate.
From the first concept sketch to the rig’s inaugural drill‑string rotation, we bring every stage of an onshore drilling rig to life. Our team blends process, mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, civil and safety expertise into a single, fully‑integrated package that delivers results on time, on budget, and to the highest safety standards worldwide.
Engineering Disciplines in Action
Mechanical & Process – Rig‑drilling fluid loops, mud‑handling systems, BOP stacks, and drill‑string hardware are engineered to deliver optimal performance and safety.
Electrical & Automation – Power distribution, control panels, SCADA, and real‑time telemetry keep the rig running smoothly and give operators instant insight into well conditions.
Instrumentation & Safety – Pressure, temperature, and flow sensors are integrated into a safety‑instrumented system that safeguards against blowouts and other hazards.
Civil & Structural – Derrick towers, footings, and support platforms are designed to withstand the rig’s operational loads and the environmental conditions of your site.
Piping & Pipeline – All well‑site piping, fluid handling and waste‑water treatment systems are engineered for reliability and regulatory compliance.
By treating each discipline as a tightly interwoven thread, we produce rigs that are not only technically sound but also economical and flexible enough to adapt to evolving project requirements.
Why Apache Refinery Services?
- End‑to‑End Control – We own every stage of the project, from concept to completion.

- Expert Team – Engineers with deep experience in onshore drilling rig design, construction, and operation.
- Global Delivery – Proven track record of building, deploying, and operating rigs in North America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
Whether you’re commissioning a brand‑new rig or modernizing an existing asset, Apache Refinery Services delivers the technical excellence, project‑management rigor, and operational support you need to get the job done.
Apache Refinery Services – Your partner for every onshore drilling rig capability, from concept to production.
Concept to Completion
At Apache Refinery Services we begin by translating your drilling objectives into a rigorous engineering plan. Conceptual design sessions define rig layout, well‑site utilities, and the mechanical configuration—whether you need a conventional Kelly‑drive rig, a modern top‑drive system, or a jack‑up‑ready platform. From there we move into front‑end engineering, establishing procurement strategy, risk mitigation, and cost control before the detailed design phase takes over. In that stage our CAD teams craft every detail of the derrick, tower, piping, instrumentation, and electrical systems, ensuring each component meets API, ISO, and NACE standards.
Our detailed engineering does not stop at drawings. We coordinate fabrication, welding, and quality inspections, then oversee installation and commissioning on‑site. Every step is governed by tight project‑management controls that keep schedule, budget, and safety metrics transparent.
From Procurement to Turnaround
Our procurement strategy leverages industry relationships to secure high‑quality components at competitive prices. We monitor fabrication and construction in real time, using rigorous quality‑assurance protocols to prevent defects and delays. When the rig is delivered, our start‑up crews perform comprehensive commissioning—testing drilling equipment, calibrating sensors, and validating BOP integrity—before handing the rig over to you for production drilling.
If you need a turnaround, we can support refitting, maintenance, or decommissioning. Our full‑service approach means you can count on us for every phase of the rig’s life cycle.
