Drillmec S.p.A. manufactures a skidding system to transport the mast, substructure and setback along an in-line well pattern, while the rig is in vertical drilling position.

The Skidding system consists on the following:

- Four 200 ton hydraulic lifting jacks.
- Eight 20 ton rig push/pull skidding jacks.
- Four 200 ton hardened roller assemblies for straight-line motion and with vertical guides.
- Four roller bases to support the rig on the location foundation and support for the rollers.
- One set of substructures modification and support material to add to the substructure bottom boxes.

The system comes complete with a control console, which includes independent control valves for jacking and independent control valves for skidding. Valves are included to control BOP handling equipment. The control console has quick disconnects and hoses aimed to connect the hydraulic power unit to the rig. The versatility of this control console promotes greater effectiveness of the operator, which enhances the productivity of the rig. An electric power unit for rig skidding and BOP handling is also included. A skid mounted power unit with reservoir, pump and hose bracket completes this assembly.
