Rig mattings introduction

The matting board is a portable platform used to support equipment used in construction and other resource-based activities, including drilling rigs, camps, tanks, and helipad.

Details of rig mattings

These mats are commonly made of spruce, pine, fir or a combination thereof encased in a steel frame. The frame is normally I Beam or HST steel. The steel is used to strengthen the mats, enabling the manufactures of the mats to build them in larger sizes and to support more weight compared to all other types of mats. Common sizes are 8' x 20', 8' x 30', and 8' x 40'. One great advantage is the ease of repairing the wooden inserts which gives new life to an already long lasting and durable mat. This method of repair can be completed on both I Beam and HST style mats

Rig mats can not only be used as platform for drilling rig on soft ground but also can load many different equipment in whole drilling site. Such as the solids control system with many tanks, as well as for work over rig system, for the mud pump. We can configure mats to be whole ground pate for all equipment, we also can configure mat for a part of equipment on rough ground
