How Service Rigs Play a Vital Role in Oilfield Production

In the lifecycle of an oil well, service rigs (also known as workover rigs or pulling rigs) are the backbone of field maintenance and well servicing. These mobile units are used after initial drilling, handling everything from tubing replacements to pump repair.

🔧 Core Functions of Service Rigs:

• Pulling and replacing tubing

• Pump and rod service

• Cleaning out wellbores

• Installing or removing packers

• Zonal isolation and re-entry operations

Service rigs ensure the well continues to perform safely and efficiently—often responding to urgent needs that drilling rigs cannot address. Whether you're managing mature wells or scaling production, a reliable rig is a must.
