INDUSTRY.co.id - Jakarta - PT Pertamina Drilling Service Indonesia (PDSI) is currently working on one of Jatiasri-9 (Jas-9) fields owned by PT Pertamina EP by optimizing the operation of one of the Cyber-55 Rigs.
Cyber rigs are rigs that are operated and controlled accurately with computer systems. The 1500HP (Horse Power) Rig Cyber-55 with #RIG PDSI # 31.3 / D1500-E code is operated in Jas-9 field since December 30, 2017.
According to Project Manager of PDSI Jawa - KTI (Eastern Indonesia), Comedy, through a written statement received by Antara in Jakarta on Friday, the rig is one of 10 cyber rigs owned by PDSI, purchased since 2011.
The American-made rig, being the main drill for drilling, has many advantages. Among other things operated using the operating system with touch screen / touchscreen, where one monitor can control all existing equipment, can provide information based on drilling activities conducted with the alarm system and warning.
Cyber rig has a maximum setting system, enough to operate one person with the support of 5 600-volt genset engines.

Previously the cyber rig has also been operated in Kalimantan for exploration purposes in the business environment of Pertamina and other Contractor Cooperation Contractors (KKKS) in Indonesia.

With the large number of drilling requests using cyber rigs, PDSI plans in 2018 will again procure 6 cyber rigs, namely 3 units of 1500HP and 3 units of 1000HP.
