Abu Dhabi: The National Drilling Company (NDC), has inaugurated a new land rig, as part of the company’s fleet expansion programme which, covers offshore, onshore and land rigs to serve the oil and gas industry in Abu Dhabi, the company announced on Sunday.
NDC says the new rig will help the company keep abreast of the long term plans of its clients, such as Abu Dhabi Company for Onshore Oil Operations (Adco), and step-up its ability to perform specific drilling operations that require the availability of rigs of various horsepower capabilities. NDC Chief Executive Officer, Abdullah Saeed Al Suwaidi, said that NDC has doubled the number of its rigs in the last four years from 28 in 2009 to 58 rigs owned by the company so far.
