The new Allrig brand concept was launched during this year’s Offshore Technology Conference held in Houston, Texas and around the world on May 5 with events in Vicksburg, Houma, La., the Netherlands, Dubai and Singapore.

Allrig unites the oil field service expertise of U.S. based independents Vicksburg Marine Inc, Southern Technology & Services and Benchmark Instrumentation with the North Sea pedigree of Netherlands based Willteco and the shipyard know-how of Singapore based Willtech Asia.

As a single company, Allrig provides offshore drilling contractors a global one-stop shop. Allrig Services include full quayside rig upgrades, jacking systems and crane inspections, drilling equipment from mud pump, draw-works, top drive and BOP refurbishments, derrick and rope access inspections and competence assured academy training.

“The industry is resetting its cost base right now and clients are looking for partners who can truly add value to their bottom line – Allrig is that company,” said Mark Hannigan CEO of Allrig.

Allrig is present in every major drilling region with class approved replacement parts available ex stock and competency assured technicians resident in each territory. Allrig meets the highest accreditation and safety standards and offers training through its global Knowledge Academy.

Through their trademarked Totaldoc shipyard partnerships in each region, Allrig offers vessel owners quayside turnkey solutions – everything from a small-unplanned pit stop to a full five-year special periodic survey.

Allrig has invested in a strong operational presence in the Middle East and a world-class engineering team.  Their engineering teams have developed innovative, efficiency enhancing and cost saving products like the trademarked Cleardrop Cover and a crane SCR upgrade kit.

Customers can expect the same personal touch, high quality workmanship and dedicated service they’ve come to expect from Allrig with all of the management teams and technicians remaining in place.  Allrig offers a global presence, a broader range of products and services and stronger backing for further investment.

With decades of combined operational experience, Allrig can solve virtually any problem on a drilling rig and help keep their clients on day rate.
