  3. Slide 3: Market Observations

    Market Observations The unconventional oil and gas plays require mostly horizontal and/or directional drilling, enabling better and more cost-effective reservoir performance. More complex drilling favors FlexRigs as they are a catalyst for drilling efficiencies and improved safety performance. Absen
